[SOLO] My Lipedema Diagnosis & Why You should get checked
Our host Thamina was recently diagnosed with lipedema, a chronic disease of inflamed fat cells that affects primarily women. It causes pain, swelling, and abnormal sensations in the tissues of the legs, hips, buttocks, and sometimes arms. Not to mention the psychological impact on patients' mental health due to their change in physical appearance.
On this episode, Thamina talks about her diagnosis and encourages every woman to get checked, preferably by a phelobologist.
1 in 10 women are believed to suffer from lipedema, a disease that is widely unknown and very frequently under- and misdiagnosed. While there is no cure for lipedema, the medical treatment that is recommended by doctors, liposuction, is rarely covered by health insurance and can cost anywhere between $10,000 and $100,000.
Thamina is sharing her story to spread awareness so more women can diagnosed early in life.
