(This message was added in version 6.7.0.) in /home4/robohara/public_html/www.LegsLikeMine.com/wp-includes/functions.php on line 6114Hi friends!\u00a0 I see so many posts on the forums that start like this…”anyone else out there also have POTS, HEDS, MCAS…?”\u00a0 A lot of times this will trigger multiple responses from ladies who have more than one thing going on, with lipedema being our overlap.\u00a0 So I thought I’d put together some information to use as an FAQ for ladies who are just seeing the connection of comorbidities.\u00a0 Enjoy!<\/p>\n
Let’s start with the basics.\u00a0 What is lipedema?<\/p>\n
Lipedema is a chronic and often underdiagnosed condition characterized by an abnormal accumulation of fat primarily in the hips, thighs, and lower legs. Although it mainly affects women, men can also develop lipedema – yep! One aspect that makes this condition complex is its association with comorbidities, which are additional health conditions that can coexist with lipedema.<\/p>\n
For more information on my personal lipedema journey and the journeys of several other women with lipeema, grab a copy of my first book, Jeans on a Beach Day.<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
