Well, we finally got episode two completed. This one brought some technical issues to slow its release a bit, but we finally got something together to release. It's not perfect, but we learn as we go. Not to mention a mouth that didn't want to get all the words out the way I wanted, but hey, it happens.
So, on the second episode, we look at what the differences are between obesity and lipedema, and why it is so important for people, especially doctors to know the difference. We look at the types of lipedema and the stages of lipedema and why a doctor needs to learn how to make a diagnosis. Then we move on to the psychological and emotional impact of having lipedema. Finally, there's a brief summary of the treatment methods used to manage lipedema and why we need to be proactive about getting people informed and advocating for lipedema research and legislation to require insurance coverage for all the mentioned treatment methods.
