I have the same thing. I'm very thin on top and waist and have thick legs fat around my knees and very painful calves and big ankles. Have had this for years and I'm 65 it's getting worse. I have a vibration plate machine and rebounder. I wear compression socks I'm wondering if taking MMS would help

I also have lipedema. What I can tell you has slowed the progression and even reversed it quite a bit is using my CHI MACHINE twice per day at the max time frame and doing full body CRYOTHERAPY. I do cryo from 3 to 6 minutes per day. I eat well and work out here and there when I find the time. The moment I stop the above....man, it comes back with vengeance!!!! I have stage 1 with a 25 inch waist and large bottom (40 inches), thighs, calves, lots of fat around the knees and lots of fat pockets all over my legs. This is the vengence I speak of. My mom and sister both have it although my older sister and younger brother do not.

I have Lipedema, and doing manual lymphatic drainage and will receive compression garments soon. I am type 5 and at stage 3. My doctors have always told me I'm obese. My frame is thin up top and my legs very large. Sadly as I've not been treated, it's now affecting my arms, abdomen, etc. Were spending approx $200 a week on treatment just to try to stop this going to stage 4. My doctor has been no help, but when I went to a church camp, a doctor there, diagnosed me with Lipedema.
On Thursday I hope my own GP accepts I have Lipedema and possibly write a prescription for Compression garments. I've been quoted $350 just for my legs.

It's so sad there are no post or comments here. I'm pretty bad but now I'm sure this is the cause of my shame. I'm going to go hard out to help others and will start with my rife machine, (spooky 2) and see how I go and work on lymphs plus try vegan/ plat based as keto got me nowhere.
Water fasting 11 days cured my severe concussion of two years so maybe that can help too....

Hi, please add lipedema as an ailment, not to be mistaken for lymphedema.
It's the one that's also called painful fat syndrome and gives you huge lower legs even if you have gastric surgery or are starved.
EC: Hi Tea, a new page for this ailment has been added. Please post remedies if you know of any!
