[quote=Anonymous]Have you ever been told you might have lipedema, which is an adipose tissue and lymphatic disorder and is widely under-diagnosed? The hallmark features are a lean upper body and fat concentrated in lower torso and legs. Many people have widespread pain. Google "lipedema project". The lipedemic fat is very resistant to diet and exercise. Treatment includes manual drainage massage or physical therapy and compression garments. There are several helpful nutritional strategies, including low inflammation, low carb and something called RAD. Dr. Karen Herbst MD in Tuscon, AZ is the leading national expert. Her research is on "Fat Disorders Research Society." At the Lipedema Project website the is a link to a new publication for physicians that is also helpful. Wish I had been diagnosed much earlier in my life so just passing on this info in case it helps you or anyone else. [/quote]
