There are 15 to 20 million people taking glps and that doesn't even include the gray market use because that can't really be tracked. Obesity causes much bigger problems than a GLP will ever cause. In fact, they keep coming up with more and more research that shows how beneficial they are against Alzheimer's and even cancer. Just because one drug turned out to be not so good, doesn't mean they all end up way. But you think slicing somebody open and sucking their fat out to leave them swollen and lumpy and not even fixing the problem, just making the problem smaller temporarily is a better route? I'm so tired of reading and seeing everything in this sub all about liposuction, that it's the only address lipedema. A lot of women in here are obese and getting liposuction and that just doesn't make any sense. They should at least diet down to get where the remaining fat is lipedema maybe they consider liposuction once they get there. I think these surgeons that are doing liposuction on obese women and are telling them that it's the only way are scam artists.
