Venous ultrasound
Hello,
I am trying to determine if I have lymphedema or lipedema. My dr (an np) didn't want to give me a referral, but offered a venous ultrasound-- like a compromise, I guess?
So my question is, what information will I actually get from this? Can the test be... 'negative'... And I still have lymphedema or lipedema? Can this diagnose at all, or is this just a waste of my time to encourage me to drop the subject?
Thanks for any input 🙂
