I suspect I have both lymphedema & lipidemia. I am trying to get diagnosed to find out. How do people in Canada, specifically BC get diagnosed? I am on disability & can't afford to pay out of pocket. I can't afford to travel to another country. Is there any hope of getting a diagnosis or treatment? Since I can't afford to pay. It feels beyond hopeless. Apparently I need to be on weight loss meds. But docs say I don't have diabetes or health problems caused by weight. So it's not covered. Anyone else on disability here? How are u getting help?

How are people in Canada, specifically BC getting diagnosis & treatment? I am on disability & can't afford to pay out of pocket. Or to travel to another country. Docs keep telling me I need weight loss meds. But then say I don't have diabetes or health condition caused by my weight. So the meds are not covered. I can't afford them. I have not been able to get a diagnosis. I use a walk in clinic to see a doc. On the provincial weight list. Is there any hope to get a diagnosis & treatment, since I can't afford to pay? It feels beyond hopeless. I read the Wiki.
