Response from Dr. Moyle
 There is not enough information here to help. If he is not HIV positive then the diagnosis would be a lipodystrophy of either an acquired (mostly auto-immune) or inherited form. There is an NIH centre that focuses on these types of lipodystrophy and your doctor would refer him to these specialists Please write back if this is not enough information Graeme |
