Weight Gain causing more sleep loss

My sleep dr and GP think that gaining 8 lbs in 2 wks has resulted in my not being able to sleep more than 4 hrs a night, while getting up 1-3 times. I take 2 klonopin to take a nap and can only sleep 30 mins. I hope I can still be a good candidate for surgery, as I believe I just crossed the line between overweight and obese. I know that after surgery, I should lose some weight, depending on what procedure is used.

In the mean time, GP prescribed tylenol pm and sleep doc PA says no and she is asking sleep doc what I should take instead. I received a script to treat my migraines this morning also.
