LIPEDEMA/LYMPHEDEMA

I was diagnosed with Lipedema last year.  Even though I had released 140 lbs and successfully kept it off for 15 years, I did not understand why I couldn't lose the lower body weight and my legs seemed to get bigger ever year! Lipedema doesn't respond to diet or exercise. It is a connective tissue and fat disorder. This disease is hereditary and triggered hormonally at puberty, childbirth and menopause. There are conservative measures that help reduce inflammation and restore lymphatic flow which I will share with you. Liposuction to remove is often recommended. I am

currently undergoing liposuction for the removal of lipedema. Many insurance companies now cover as it is recognized as a disease.
