dexa harder to get now for me

I live in a smaller town and my local hospital where I have been getting body comp/dexa every six months just dramatically changed their availability. I was thinking of buying a Hume scale but have heard people with Lipedema get odd results. Is that true? Anyone with the Hume scale have results that are helpful or directional?

When to have surgery

Have a question I am hoping those with experience can answer. I am stage 2. in the process of scheduling surgery. I have been on GLP for two years and have lost 70 lbs. AM post menopausal. I am about 20 lbs away from goal weight. I work out with a trainer two times a week and she measures me every six weeks. Today was the first time my butt and leg measurements went up. Other measurements were down or neutral. I am wondering, have I hit the stage where I only have fibrotic fat left in thighs and butt? If I keep losing weight will I just lose muscle and pull from places like my face? I know it's hard to know but wondering if I am better off having surgery before losing more weight. Any thoughts?
