Lipedema

Hi, my name is Meloncita041511. I'm here because over the past 10 years I have been suffering of chronic pain related to my back, lipedema, chronic arthritis and recently over the past month I have been experiencing an overall sun burned sensation throughout my whole body. It is accompanied by pins and needles sensation to both my hands and feet that my anxiety triggers. My doctor is unable to tell me what is wrong with me. I researched signs of flared skin and tingling of hands and feet and found this site. Reading the symptoms others experience with the flare up of their fibromyalgia I believe what I have is fibromyalgia. How do I get my doctor to recognize this. He states my symptoms stem are related to problems with my spine as I have a lot going on with misalignments, spurs, and so on, but I strongly believe my symptoms are from fibromyalgia.

Hi, my name is Kazmiki. I've been diagnosed with stage 4 Lipoedema and secondary Lymphoedema and I am neurodivergent and struggling with daily pain and reduced mobility and body dismorphia. I also care for people with mental illness and other chronic conditions.

Hi, my name is rachelmiranda. I'm here because I live with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, Lipedema, and Interstitial Lung Disease. I am looking for resources, support, and community about living with chronic illness--and looking for a partner while living with these things. I'm also a creative writer, always looking for new pathways to write about this life.

Hi, my name is ME55. I'm here because lipedema has taken over my life, sparked a bad case of lymphedema, and left me surprised, angry, frustrated, embarrassed...you name it. I want to benefit from others' knowledge to make the best of this mostly untreatable condition.

When I started this #Lipedema and #fat shameing group, I envisioned an environment where those of us living with disfiguring and uncomfortable blobs of fat we can't get rid of, could talk. Though I'm certain I'm not the only person, particularly among women, dealing with this kind of disfigurement, that appears to be the case on this particular site. So, let's let this one lie fallow for awhile. Blessings

Hi, my name is kellsndudz. I'm here because my twin sister deals with chronic pain from EDS and the lipedema related to it. I wish to learn more as a caregiver.
