Are there any support groups or services for those who have lipoedema? I have been seeking support and advice for a while.

Hi AndrogonyThere are several groups on Facebook, the one I find best is Talk Lipoedema, they also have sub groups Talk Lipoedema Private Chat, which is a closed group and there are only female members, here we discuss everything lipoedema with the exception of liposuction, there is also Talk Lipoedema on Liposuction another closed group for ladies wishing to discuss surgery options, Talk Lipoedema Family and Carers, whilst this is also a closed group it is open to partners etc and therefore has some male members. Talk Lipoedema is a charity and the information they provide is completely free.

There is also Lipoedema UK.

I hope this information helps. 💜
