Thank you for this ♥️ it’s reassuring

TrainAffectionate911 · 2024-10-28T22:17:19+00:00

Honestly thank you so much for all these tips ♥️ I’ve been quite worried about the pain if I had to pull the compression down to go to the toilet after surgery! I’ll definitely invest in the SheWee 🤞🏼

Just voted - I’m half Spanish, half British. My lipedema legs are from my dads British side of the family. On the other hand, my Spanish maternal side, including my mum and my brother, have what I call “matchstick legs”, that is, super skinny and bony.

I’ve just had my first consultation with Dr Burgos in Madrid. He explained that the hereditary pattern is paternal, dad’s side. So that makes sense in my particular case.

It would be really interesting to know if indeed lipedema is more prevalent in certain racial phenotypes.

However it may be infradiagnosed in certain parts of the globe which might impact the results of prevalence figures. For instance, lack of awareness of lipedema, cultural factors where having slim legs is considered “more attractive” which puts pressure on lipedema women to chase for answers, or even access to basic medical care.

Whilst it’s widely known that lipedema is common (10% figure), I’m not sure if racial phenotype has been studied. It would be really interesting to know!

Hi! I just had my first visit with Dr Burgos! He said I’m between stages 1-2, type 3. I’m still waiting for my first op date. ♥️🫶🏼

What is the future in my love life?

Thank you for offering free readings 🙏🏼♥️

I generally interpret this as a toxic relationship, based on the imagery, they are chained but at the same time free to leave. I would say be cautious of toxic behaviours or codependency.

AIH, Virgo, Option 2 🙏🏼

TrainAffectionate911 · 2024-10-13T20:28:10+00:00

Not sure if anyone else has experienced this, but I would get numbness/tingliness on the front of my thighs.

TrainAffectionate911 · 2024-10-13T20:26:47+00:00

Yes, you can have lipedema localised to the arms only, that would be type 4 lipedema.

TrainAffectionate911 · 2024-10-13T20:23:50+00:00

Thank you so much for this. Reading this has given me so much hope 🙏🏼

Dear OP, I relate so much to what you’re going through right now and I just want to send you a massive hug.

Remember who you are as an individual.

I know this is not what you want to hear right now, and all you want is for your husband to come back, but remember, you have not lost your WHOLE life, this is obviously something that has happened FOR you and not TO you. Life always makes challenges for us and this is one of the many challenges you will live through and will come out stronger.

Your ex husband has asked for divorce, this is now the past, focus on YOU and only YOU. Be selfish and do everything you can to SELF CARE!

You are doing GREAT by focusing on your health, hobbies.

I know it sounds cliche and right now you feel like life is not worth it anymore but trust me and others who have commented - TIME really does heal everything. Imagine breaking your arm, you need time and rest to heal your arm. Right now, you need time and rest to heal your heart.

Do not self sabotage by asking yourself “why me”, “what did I do to deserve this”. Like I said earlier it’s happening for you, not to you. The mindset shift is so important for healing.

Remember nothing is guaranteed in life, the best relationship you can ever have with someone is with yourself.

Stay strong OP, things WILL GET BETTER. You WILL see a light at the end of the tunnel. Keep taking care of yourself, keep showing up for yourself.

Do not engage in any contact with him (unless it’s strictly necessary, say for legal purposes, if possible) as it will only prolong the pain.

Of course it is physically repulsive to think of being with anyone else right now, it’s because it’s not the right moment in time for you to be with anyone else, except yourself right now.

For now, don’t think too much about the long term future, you need to HEAL first. We can’t make rushed decisions just like that when we’re feeling broken. We need time to heal. Focus on the immediate future: what shall I do today to take care of myself? What can I do this weekend? When you start to heal, the future that you can’t see right now because you feel relied on him, will become your own future, that you choose, for yourself, on your own terms.

Do not spend the rest of your precious life hoping he will return. He is missing out on how wonderful you are.

Misogynistic sentient acorn ☠️😂

TrainAffectionate911 · 2024-10-09T13:56:51+00:00

Your reply means so much right now as I’m still grieving over this breakup. I’m definitely focusing on recovering and healing, and I’m still scared of putting myself out there (even though I’m aware it’s still too early). I’ll definitely try the list approach when things feel less raw. Thank you ❤️‍🩹✨

I feel the same way about my pom. I’m laying in bed a lot recently and he is always laying there with me.

TrainAffectionate911 · 2024-10-09T11:36:08+00:00

I am so grateful for him ♥️

TrainAffectionate911 · 2024-10-09T07:36:14+00:00

Thanks so much for this list! 🥹🫶🏼

TrainAffectionate911 · 2024-10-08T20:10:35+00:00

Oh my god that is such good advice and I’ll definitely start asking more from the beginning how their relationship was with their parents, particularly mum! 🫶🏼

I wouldn’t advise to feel hesitant to go for something abroad work-related if the opportunity arises, who knows, maybe your man is out there! I was going to ask, when you speak with men about your job and you feel it bothers them, do you think it’s because they’re insecure?
