Multiple lipomas

I have multiple lipomas on my arms, chest including two very large ones on my legs. I know they are harmless but new ones keep appearing all the time. I suffer from severe anxiety and depression and they are not helping at all with it. They are also damaging my self esteem which is already low before. I know they are generally removed on the NHS Only under extreme circumstances and private is not an option. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks

Has your GP any suggestions as the situation is clearly affecting your mental health? I think this might entitle you to treatment through NHS. Good luck with it all, I know how much harm our skin problems can cause.
