Advice needed.
Last week I found out I have Lipedema. Before that I always just thought I had bigger legs and arms. I bruise very easily, no amount of walking helps my legs, and even just a small poke to my arm feels like someone punched me. I've become so ashamed and embarrassed, especially of my legs that I won't even wear shorts anymore. I'm not sure what stage I'm in, maybe 2 or 3. But does surgery seem like my only option at this point?
