being a support person in your lippy ladies surgery

I just returned from Germany where I was a support person, or a "second" we call it, during the lymph sparing water jet assisted liposuction by Dr. Josef Stutz in Bad Steben, Germany for three amazing lippy ladies (you know who you are).

I learned a few tricks during each of the three surgeries to make your lady comfortable so I wanted to share how to be a good second.

Excellent concise suggestions for being a "second" in the operating room. After already having the surgery myself, I'd be willing to be a "second" for someone else if the need ever arose.

DIVORCE AND MARITAL BREAKTHROUGH

It all started when my husband cheated on me with another woman unknowing to him that the woman is a wizard, the woman castes a spell on my husband which made my husband change his feelings towards me and the kids and broke our 6 years marriage. i was confused and stressed because of the pains of being a single mother, when i called a friend and explained my marital challenges to her, she instructed and directed me to contact a great powerful spell caster called Dr. Ugo Wonders living in Florida. i contacted Dr. Ugo and explained my problems, he assured me his help and it was 100% guaranteed. i provided the materials for the spell and in 48 hours, after Dr Ugo Wonders of generalspelltemple@gmail.com finished casting the spell, my husband was free from the evil woman spell and he came back home to us a day after begging us to forgive him. i was so shocked and short of words and here i am today happily testifying so the world can know how this great man helped me with his real powerful spell.
To every one with marital problem, divorce issues, lost lover or any relationship related issues, you can contact Dr. Ugo wonders the ultimate spell caster via his email address generalspelltemple@gmail.com or call his mobile number directly on +13863369876

Thank you very much for the helpful comments. My husband did not have your guidance when he accompanied me to my surgeries with Dr. Stutz. I believe getting arnica throughout the surgery is very important to prevent bruising. And how terrific to have a supportive person with you who understands the process and what is expected of them

Is there a physician in the South that does this procedure?

Hi
My daughter is 16. We have just discovered she has Lipedema and elevated insulin levels. I think she has had Lipodema for a couple of years. The doctor who diagnosed it said she has it mildly?? and also because of my daughters healthy life style and all the exercise she does have it badly. I would so like to get rid of it if possible before it becomes a massive problem. Of course it has already impacted hugely on her life as a teenager as has the insulin levels. The doc says she should have a course of the massage and bandages. This would take about a month. My daughter is not keen as she is at school etc and doesn't want to wear bandages. What would be the implications if she doesn't do it. Surely we should get the fluid and proteins out of her body. Will it get worse if we don't remove the fluid? Also how old do people have to be to have the liposuction. If this is a cure it would be amazing for my daughter to have that. I am so new at this and would appreciate any advice. I really have to get this right. Thank you

Yes it will most likely get worse. I believe anyone over 15 years old is able to get liposuction. Most insuranced will not cover it. She won't wear bandages for long. She will most likely leak for 24-48 hours after surgery. The insisions are very small. Good luck to your daughter

Hi, Dr. Herbst - I had liposuction in Dec '06 w/Dr.Abrams for my Dercums. It was a great relief for about a year, then came back with a vengeance. How does this surgery differ? I would assume a better outcome? Thanks so much for your help, if you could, please... Leslie

Hi there. I am hoping someone can assist me. I am looking for a god Surgeon in Northern California for Liposuction for stage 3 Lipodema.

I am sitting here feeling so sad.....I have had this all my life and I work and I am so mentally active...and I hurt all the time. If it was not for the Love of Christ in my life.....I would be in deep depression.

Please. If someone could just help me figure this out.
My legs are getting worse. It makes me feel like a bad wife and less of a person sometimes...although my husband loves me so much and NEVER complains about it, I want to feel better- its the pain. Its just getting worse and every single day I can barely move.

God Bless You.
Gina Council.

Dr Amron is in Beverly Hills and is great. Google his name- he works/owns Roxbury institute and deals with numerous lipedema patients. He plans to start a course to education other surgeons. Most people have to travel for this surgery... There are very few experienced surgeons in the US right now that will go near the ankle area.

Hi. I just learned of Dercum's Disease. I haven't been diagnosed, however I've been dealing with the lipoma and pain for a few months. I live in a smaller town which doesn't help when trying to get proper care for a not so common illness or conditions. I'm finally able to meet with a rheumatologist this coming Friday (28 June). Everything I've read about Dercum's matches my problems. Is there anyway to maybe find some ways to discuss this with my doctors?

I'm also very open to integrative medicine. I've been taking Arnica in spray and tablet forms. If there are any suggestions as to what strength and/or other natural remedies/homeopathic treatments, I'm willing to try that as well. I would like to be as informed as possible so that I can be more active in my care.

Also if there are any clinics, support groups, specialty practices and whatever else near Kentucky that would be greatly appreciated. I live in Western Kentucky, but I will travel if that's what it takes to get help.

Thank you all for your help. This has been extremely isolating journey.

Do you have the contact details for Dr Josef Stutz as I would be interested in having liposuction for my lipedema. Many thanks

I have stage 3-4 lipedema and have felt so alone in this. Met with my doctor today and says I also have dercum's diasease. I was looking to see if anyone here in the US does the wal surgery but I was told not currently. I don't have the kind of money to go to Germany - as I don't think my insurance would cover it. I would love to be part of a trial also part of a support group if anyone can help. I have not been home in 17 yrs because of the way I look. I don't go out in public except to work because I get made fun of, on top of being big I am a technically a little person - how funny is that. I do travel outside the US as I figure I'll never see those people again - so I even go swimming - in a man't bathing suit bottom since they don't make them right for women. I am picking up a pump Friday. I found walmart - has these leggings by maiden form like spanx but a lot cheaper I have been wearing for compression help. My doctor suggested trying a gluten free diet so I am going to give that a try. Any info suggestions would be really appreciated

Hi there,
I am 38 & have been in Stage 1 Lipedema since age 12. After a pregnancy 3 years ago, it appears parts of my upper thighs are now in Stage 2 & the pain is worse than ever all over both legs. I am underweight for my height as it is (this is how I have managed to keep it in check all these years), but feel in desperate need to do something to stop the progression as it seems to be getting worse by the day.
I am so deeply sad about having lipedema - it consumes my life & I spend hours each day (& have for years & years) researching & trying to find a solution that will free me from having this affliction. I want to try a ketogenic diet as I feel it may help metabolise the dysfunctional adipose tissue, but fear I may lose visceral fat in preference to the lipedemic tissue I have which would obviously be very dangerous.
Is there any research that you know of, anecdotal or otherwise on lipedema & nutritional ketosis?
Many many thanks for your excellent work & interest in this area, Em

It is so hard to read all these comments knowing that so little can be done. The pain let's talk about the pain. I have a new therapist and she said lipoedema is not painful. I am not certain she knows there is anything but lymphedema. It is frustrating to know more than the specialist. I wish it were better for us. I too cannot do the chores I need too, play with my grandchildren like I want to or be me! So I would love to hear from anyone. It is 113 today so I am going to sign off Hot_ Stuck in tights!

Any suggestions regarding the WAL lupo? Anyone use the lupedema doctor from NY or Atlanta? Arizona seems closed for new patients. I wantched my beautiful mother suffer her whole life in stage 4 and here I am following the same path. Please help. Thank you in advance..... such a difficult decision and feeling quite alone.

I too would love info on the WAL besides what I have been able to research online. I live in the Northeast and I cannot find anyone who specializes or has even heard of DD. Its so frustrating that I went into a deep depression and my doctor put me on Cymbalta because it is known for pain as well. It has worked for psin discomfort but legs still swollen and not painful to walk anymore only pain to the touch. Still looking for a doctor to treat me. Willing too travel to NY, Boston but so far nothing.

Much thanks to you for another awesome article. Where else might anyone be able to get that sort of data in such an impeccable method for composing? I have a presentation one week from now, and I am on the search for such data.

I want to use this medium to testify of how i got back my ex husband after divorce, i and my husband have been married for 8 years with 2 kids, we have been a happy family. Last year his behavior towards me and the kids changed, i suspected he was meeting another woman outside out marriage, any time i confronted him, he threatened to divorce me, i did all i could to make hings right but all to no avail until i saw a post on a "love and relationship forum" about a spell caster who helps people to cast spell on marriage and relationship issues, when i contacted this spell caster via email, he helped me cast a re-union spell and my husband changed and came apologizing to me and the kids. Contact this great spell caster for your relationship or marriage issues via this email: chiefdrlucky@gmail.com or Whats App him on +2348132777335 Website : http://chiefdrluckysolutionhome.website2.me/ Good luck
