I have been diagnosed with lipoedema. This is a disease of the fat and affects mainly the legs and arms. It is a painful and debilitating disease and often wrongly diagnosed. Due to the treatment required (liposuction) it is not covered by the NHS or health insurance. Most women will require a minimum of 2-3 surgeries (some much more), the average cost in the UK is from £7500 - £12000 per surgery. It also needs to be treated by a lipoedema specialist. Due to this I am looking to travel abroad to have more affordable surgeries. I am still looking to raise £20.000 to cover current expenses. I am also hoping to bring awareness to women suffering and wrongly diagnosed. This is not a cosmetic surgery it is a necessity before it becomes debilitating and I become immobile. Please assist me on my journey!
