I'm glad you've got some coverage coming your way. Did I understand, right, though, that you have to wait until January (??!!) until you can actually start using the CPAP?
With regards to the surgery, can you email me privately to talk about weight loss? I think that using CPAP will have a similar effect in terms of getting weight off without the risks of the surgery.
Best wishes,
Amy
