Hi has anyone got private health insurance? and if yes has anyone had a successful claim for Tumescent Liposuction I only know of one successful claim with one lady.

Its driving me crazy how NHS are treating this chronic condition with compression etc when the only successful treatment which can reverse the effects and give us lades our quality of life back if the Tumescent Liposuction!

Hello, I have private insurance with Axa PPP, but because there is no code for Lipoedema they're unable to help. However, I did hear that someone who had aviva insurance did get funding! No idea who they are to ask how they managed that.
