What kind of doctor do we go for diagnosis? Treatment?
I’m in pain just watching this. Fat hurts😩
I have DD and Lipedema too. I'm really good at the "Guess your weight" game at Cedar Point. Its one small DD perk amongst many challenges.
Hi Ma'am I am from India, I have multiple Lipomas, I consulted with doctors, they told there is not any cure. I have to go for surgery. Ma'am plz let me know, Is it true that presently all over the world there is only Surgery option or there is some medication also available, Please let me know. Thankyou!
The hug at the end was a beautiful finish. Thankyou to both.
I have a nodule half thw size of a GOLF BALL half way between my arm pit and breast. It's fatty lunp lipoma diagnosed in a ct scan. I also have excessive fat on thighs.
Nice to see someone cares
I have 100s of lipomas in my right arm, in my thighs and have lumps i m my stomach/ intestine area my mum has histiry of lipomas bejng removed and they grew bavk we bith sleep but are always tired, my mum is niw suffering confusion. Is is thjz dercumz disease we are bith easily bruised slsi.
Are there lifestyle risk factors for lipedema? Certain foods? Smoking? Alcohol use? Exercise level? Sleep?
In 1991-1993, I had a work accident in a glass plant, giving me an all body injury. The injury occurred with my right arm, at a full body connection. Everything was meatballs, nerves almost completely severed, muscles, etc. My lymph nodes were completely destroyed. I have had lymphedems, lipedema since that time. I was not told about it at the time that I was aware of. I died 2 times. I have increased fat accumulation since that time. All records have been destroyed. 😢 I have lived this way over 20 years.
I am newly diagnosed and I have millions and millions of them under my skin
What kind of specialists doctor can one go to get diagnosed?
What is MLD?
What type of doctor would you see to diagnose this? And what type of treatments are available to treat Lipedema.
Is lipedema a technical term for fat or obesity?
Nope .. its an actual connective tissue disorder which makes your limbs harbor abnormal nodular fat deposits and makes you prone to amassing fibrotic tissue that swells / painful or tender to touch and cannot be lost through diet or exercise
Ty for sharing
Where can I sign up for this Dr ❤️👍
you look for a lymphedema specialist in therapy--- not every physical therapist is trained in it. Some Occupational Therapists are and some Physical Therapists are.
Please go on statistics on Google data base and you will see that I am not lying to you. 92 percent of Caucasians are getting breast lips and ass surgeries just to have womanly bodies and now they are coming on social media after a bbl which can be done by injection not just fat transfer. They want to get their men to cover the shame of almost 100 percent of Caucasians getting surgery to have a black woman's body . This is too shameful please take a break. Look at the statistics and not believe everything that comes on the internet. almost 100 percent of the women in South America are getting it too. So disgusting and shameful how desperate they will do anything just to get attention base on jealousy so nasty I'm turned off by these women's desperate cry for attention.
😅 I would be laughing during the belly exam LoL
I love Dr. Herbst - she has been such a font of knowledge on the subject of Lipedema. Unfortunately patients report that she has recently stopped seeing new patients. The very few doctors who even diagnose and treat Lipedema with her level of expertise have LONG waitlists. We need more competent, trained clinicians!
Where oh where does one find such a caring and thoughtful dr ,mine takes two months for an appointment, then gives me ten minutes, I don't think she has ever seen my body !
Time for a new doctor
It's so sad that I live in an area where we have a TON of doctors but none of them seem to want to know anything about lipedema. I'm not too far from Baltimore where there are more knowledgable doctors, but my problem is I have other health issues that make it hard for me to drive, but it's far enough away that I can't ask someone else to take me. I really wish I could find a local doctor who takes insurance. My doctor seemed completely ignorant about it and thought I was saying lipedemia, which is not the same thing.
This doctor is amazing!! Ive never been cared for by a doctor like this EVER! Shoot, mine don't even touch me anymore. I literally have a lump on my body n she he didn't even touch it to feel if it felt harder or more fluid like! I couldn't believe it. I want this woman to take care of me, then maybe i will live past the age of 45. When was this recorded, where does she practice?
What about a little liquid serrapeptaise mixed with dmso and put directly on the skin for lipedema? Maybe would break down the scar tissue faster than taking it orally
I’ve been way to prideful to take the scooter. Also I fear becoming more disabled if I don’t persevere.
We all need a doctor like this ❤
My question is, why is this doctor such a rare bird? I've lost count on how many doctors I've had to explain this condition to, and that includes female doctors as well. Incredibly frustrating.
@@Stacey-js1gm I cannot count the times I've been to a doctor and they hand me a print-out of an example of a 2000 calorie diet. And I'm like: I DONT EVEN EAT 2000 CALORIES & WHAT I DO EAT IS WAYYYY BETTER THAN WHATS ON THIS STUPID PAPER! LITERALLY DID YOU EVEN LISTEN TO ME?! And they're just dumbfounded that I didn't take the paper like a good little patient and go about my way. They have lost the ability to listen to their patients. Oh you want to lose weight? Here an Rx for Ozempic. 🤦♀️ No, I do not want your toxic drugs.....
@@thesupermom1975 To add insult to injury, we're *paying* them to talk down to us "non-male", "birthing people" of illegitimate gender. I've had all I can take with the profession. I avoid doctors at all costs (money and aggravation).
@@Stacey-js1gm 👏 Agree 100%
Try Carnivore way of eating and alternating extended fasting. Why? Because there is a connection between food intolerances and lipedema. And carnivore is an elimination diet.
It's not an elimination diet. Elimination Diet takes out everything that is most likely to cause sensitivities. Animal products are likely to cause sensitivities. As are processed products. The best Elimination Diet starts with fruit and vegetables of limited varieties.
@@TraceyMush Sorry, but you are wrong.
I have never heard of food intolerances and lipidema. It is a combination of autoimmune, hormonal, and vascular problems. Everyone with the diet advice needs to educate themselves. This is a disease most do not understand. At one point, I was on a hardcore exercise regiment for five years and only lost 12 pounds. I have fasted once per week for the last 2 1/2 years and have hardly noticed any difference. This is not a diet issue.
@@beverlycrowell_ So you didn't try ketogenic or Carnivore way of life. Many lipedema patients have successes there.
@@olenjka55 I do not believe in extreme diets. I am low carb.
All she say about meat is 100% wrong and unscientific! Her diet is a political diet by a leftist cult
The model is a champion and a hero. Thanks so much for standing in for all of us. And she’s so strong. No crying, slapping, kicking or anything! It was all very informative and we hope she forgives you some day, Dr!
Butchers broom has helped me a lot with my symptoms also, using it with horse chestnut. Just spreading the word.
Great to hear. How do you use it? Internally with powder, tea, capsule? Or topically as a poultice? Thanks
I have just about all of the symptoms of hypothyroidism, but my blood values stayed at the lowest acceptable number, never dropping into the "official" zone for treatment. I tried Pure Encapsulations Thyroid Support and some of my symptoms improved after about 3 weeks. I had to stop taking it because of a personal financial crisis, but as soon as I can afford this supplement I will definitely take it again.
doctors dont touch you anywhere at all anymore.
Is this why my breasts grew bigger with menopause⁉️
Where can I find a Dr like this in my area. The knowledge & compassion is awesome.
Thank you, very helpful.
Carnivore can help
Do you have lipidema? How do you know?
So interesting - thank you from Dunedin NZ
The information offered in this video regarding vibration plates is inaccurate and in certain ways misleading. I support FDRS and this community, have specialized in vibration plates for almost 2 decades, wish more accurate information which has been offered to you would be shared.
I don't know if there is any coalition but I had my gall bladder removed and have crps. I had some lipomas removed but I think I also have dercums, small ones but very painful.
Thank you to the beautiful lady who volunteered to teach me about lipedema. I am at the beginning stage of this disease.
Do research on me. Diagnose me. All they want to do for me is to put me on ozempic so I can lose weight.
Thank you both
I looked into this for 8 years and never got the answers and they said nothing is wrong with you so i started seeing my doctor and he knew what it was so he sent me to a therapist and so far it is working i never thought a guy could get this boy was a wrong
so many people say you cant have it in your hands , she mentions it here
What doctor diagnoses lipedema and lymphedema?
This is a horrible defeat. I was told to biy compression and brand but have to order online. With measurements it a 3x. I wear a large in clothing. Its the biggest joke. The lipedema clinic should measure and fit you in office. Its medical item
I'm lymphedema certified and having to research like crazy in my off time to help lipedema people. It is a LOT for me to take in and I've been clinical for 30 years so I can't imagine making my way through this as a lay person with lipedema.
Kentucky passed a law in 2023 that insurance has to pay for compression. It starts in 2024. I have no clue how often and if they will cover 2 or not.
I’m pretty sure I have this but can’t feel any nodules, I have the ankle cuffs though
Karen Herbst: This is Judy Keith and I haven't posted anything in a few years because my Dercums Disease has basically been dormant with small flares and suddenly BOOM! And of all places my head is under attack! I and getting knots all over my head and face and they are painful! And they are coming up everywhere else too like normal. I am having massive chronic migraines, ocular migraines.Have you heard of anyone else having something similar happen to them? Hope you and your family are well!
