    Hi, my name is Kimberlee, 49. I have had PCOS all my life and was never able to have children and have the body to prove the condition. I also suffer from sleep apnea and have to use a cpap machine set at 9 whenever I go to sleep to breathe. My husband is underweigh, but had to get a cpap machine a wk. ago. Now he sleeps all night long. I don't sleep right now because of having major abdominal surgery 3 wks. ago and still have a lot of discomfort/pain. Feel free to add me. I am from Illinois, USA. I have several friends from Australia.
