lipodystrophy
      #35078 - 06/02/02 09:56 AM

Is anyone suffering from lipo, without really too much fat loss?I'm getting really big, but haven't experienced the thin legs thing yet(in fact my thighs are pretty mushy and fat)I'm wondering if the loss part usually happens first or second?Also, does anyone norice a relationship with swollen paratid glands?

Each person is individual and not all lipodystrophy symptoms happen.

I have lipo soooo bad...right in my stomach..looks like I am about 12 months pregnant, but legs are very skinny..I guess it affects everyone differantly. My tummy is so big..I literally have had to buy a few maturnity tops!

Gee, this sounds familiar! Yes, you will get the big belly, and then the bigger boobs, then your legs, face and arms will start to shrink. I think it took a year for me to notice the bigger belly, (after starting my meds) and another 8 months before I saw a real change in my arms legs and face... Oh and if you have a nice ass, say goodbye to that too, it will become these nice, sweet, squishy love handles above where your ass used to be and your back will have a little extra padding too!
Stopping meds does not do the trick! It just clings to ya..
I have felt like a non producing pregnant lady for 3 years.
I have been looking into Lipo suction, but this is a "frontier" as far as the Docs are concerned!
Good Luck, pretty soon you will have some awesome legs!
