With thirty-six episodes in the vault, the Lipedema Patient Roundtable celebrated its third anniversary with some trips down memory lane. A special guest in honor of Lipedema Awareness Month was Paula Donahue, PT, DPT, MBA, CLT-LANA, one of the authors of the Standard of Care for Lipedema in the United States. She fielded a host of questions about active and passive compression, heat or burning/tingling in limbs, how to raise awareness, and much more.
Lotions and a Lippy Butterfly potion, silver linings of jeans not ripping (!), and how to deal with being overwhelmed were also discussed. Angelique Charles shared what the Roundtable has meant to her, which was received with hearts all around when she said, "It has become my family."
Lympha Press's support for the lipedema community was acknowledged, with the Roundtables offering a safe, fun, and comfortable space to connect with others who are facing the physical and mental challenges of this condition with grace, resilience, creativity, and humor. And many attendees posted in chat that they were pumping in their Lympha Press while watching the webinar!
