I'm really sorry your grandma is going through this. Unfortunately diuretics are not useful for lymphedema, diuretics which are often refered to as water pills have little to no effect on this type of swelling. If she has lymphedema those pills will get be helping her legs at all. Maybe she has oedema which a build of fluid in the body that causes the part of the body to be swollen. Lymphedema is treated with lymphatic massage and wearing compression garments. I have lymphedema.
The willpower and determination of this woman is amazing. She lost all that weight on her own almost without surgery!

After that, I was put on hormonal birth control and I gained 40 pounds. I was eating less and moving more since I had a newborn. I have since struggled to lose weight. That and being put on cymbalta really messed me up permanently, and for me to lose any weight, I have to exercise intensely EVERY day and stay under 500 calories a day.

@@batacumbaSort of….significantly overweight people are much more likely to get lymphedema, as the sheer mass effect can damage the lymph tissue. It is a bit complicated as anything that damages a lymph channel can cause it: as said here, it can be mass effect from weight, or after lymph nodes are removed for cancer treatment, or in third worry’s countries, parasites. But if you stick to people who don’t have parasites (which are only in a few parts of the work) and who haven’t had lymph node surgery for cancer, the main factor causing lymphedema is obesity, and the main treatment is weight loss. Unfortunately, sometimes even weight loss doesn’t fix it, if the damage is bad enough to cause the lymph tissue to be destroyed, and it will grow back, but only as nonfunctional scar tissue, not as the specialized fluid-removing tissue it was. But usually weight loss can reverse it.
Given the general concept of the show, I applaud Dr. Now for realizing gastric surgery wasn't even needed for her - the skin removals being enough surgery for her body to endure. I appreciate her honesty at the beginning and how much she stuck to the plan.

That is the sign of an ethical surgeon. It’s understood that if the person doesn’t need the surgery, or if they likely won’t benefit from surgery (like those who can’t regulate their eating to some degree, as demonstrated by the pre-surgery weight loss) then the surgeon should say no. Almost all surgeons do this, and the few that don’t end up in trouble eventually.
I remember talking to my therapist about me enabling my moms alcoholism, and it really was eye opening. Essentially I thought I was helping her and my brother, but what was actually happening was that I was doing all that so I wouldn’t have to deal with more of her anger and abuse. It wasn’t helping her, it was only to help me and enabling an addict is a purely selfish behavior. Of course I was a child, so I don’t blame myself one bit, but having that insight was paramount to me changing my behavior if I really wanted to help the ones I love.
I really appreciate the respectful, positive way that you talk about these patients' delicate situations.

I've known a few people with this. Even when they lose weight and become pretty skinny on top (when they weren't obese to begin with) they still have to waddle around cos of all the weight in their legs. I really hope we find some more effective non-invasive treatment for this. It's an evil cycle.

Not a doctor, but... As far as I understand, the lymphatic system is not very well studied. There are very few treatments that deal well with changes in this system. (Compression and elevation, seriously?) We have conquered most bacterial infections and we understand the circulatory system pretty well, but the lymphatic and the female reproductive systems are lagging behind.
That was one of the most positive episodes of my 600 LB Life. I did not think she looked all that bad before she started treatment and she was a really good looking women.. In my opinion her large lymphedema on her legs is what really looked abnormal. I really enjoyed this story because she was able to change her life style and loose all that weight on her own. Dr. Youn mentioned that skin removal would take time because all the blood vessels needing to tied off. I think in this kind of situation this procedure would be so satisfying for both the patient and the surgeon.🥰

It’s so refreshing to see a happy ending on this show!
I had skin removal surgery after I had lost 265 lb. I weighed 400 lb at ruex and y . It became medically necessary to have abdomnioplasty because my excess skin started taking all the calories I was ingesting, meaning it started snow balling. The skin was causing me lose more weight to create more skin and lose more weight. 25 lb of skin was taken off and I had body dismorphia. I seen a 400 lb woman in mirror. Lowest weight 95lb. I started seeing a therapist for 2 years and gained 35 lb. They consider me a true success at 20 plus years out.
I worked at a nursing home, and there was a patient whose legs weighed 100lbs each!

I am nowhere the weight of this lady but I still get “idiopathic” bi lateral pitting edema in my legs. It is exhausting! I feel like my legs weight 500 lbs. also the skin gets very tight. Eventually it just goes away on its on. So strange. I’m can’t imagine what it must feel like to be that large and also battle swelling. Hats off to this lady!

This doctor is definitely right about 2,000-3,000 calories in the standard American diet! It's incredibly alarming.

It's nice to see, but somebody on that show who actually does what they're supposed to and what they need to do. I was surprised how much of the lymphedema decreased with just her good diet. That's amazing. The American healthcare system is set up to treat, but not to prevent. It's this kind of treatment rather than medication that needs to be emphasized.

That looks more like LIPEDEMA rather than lymphedema. Lipedma is bilateral and is a genetic adipose disorder. It is not well known, even by doctors, even though it has been a diagnosis in Germany for decades. This can be removed by specialized techniques in liposuction. A correct diagnosis is important.

Chronic CRPS here. Diagnosed age 26, almost 3 years into it by then, and too late to do a thing but pain management, to another level I might add (gabapentin + buprenorphine). In the last couple years, my lower legs + feet have started "ballooning", so I can understand to a degree what this woman is going through. No clue why + my right big toe (the outside) has started to go numb (I do have the "shin bone nerve" that's damaged). I am about to see the orthopedic surgeon for all of it. Been wearing compression socks (knee-high) for 2/3 weeks now and... at last it's gotten to a "normal" level for me. But anyway, Dr. Youn, long story short, this is even terrible at a much much "lower" level than it is for this woman. Poor gal! This hurts and itches like the Dickens. The itch, the discoloration, the weight, and the fact that your skin is stretched to a degree it really can't stretch at. It's so fragile! If you scratch, it's a wound!

I had a job that was on my feet all day too but unlike you I have managed to find relief with a combination of various things. Your comment brought back the memories of how bad it was and how bleak a time it was mentally. Funnily enough the insane itching of the skin was almost worse than the pain, like burning, being bitten by fire ants. I'm very sorry you're suffering this way. Long term chronic pain can be very wearing mentally too. Do they know the underlying reason for your edema? I'm sure being a nurse you've had a lot of advice, that can be hard too when you've thrown everything and the kitchen sink at the problem. I hope you don't mind but I'm going to pray for you. Again, I'm sorry you're suffering this way.
It’s amazing how much the skin can stretch. The pain must be extreme on her knees.
When that mass of removed tissue hits the floor, it's kind of shocking to learn that it's essentially a deep layer of skin. Not fat, not a tumor. Skin. Did I get that wrong? If not, it's just amazing how a body can produce something like that. And it must be a tremendous relief when the mass is gone and you've also eliminated its cause.

What I showed 2 friends has made them say no way to their doctors, one told her doc about the risk of gastroparesis and her doctor said "oh, so you know about that". People want the quick fix whereas there are sustainable changes to your diet that are much better.

6:20 that would be awesome if he saw how well patients were losing weight and just kept telling them to lose another 50 lb before the surgery until they actually got down to their healthy goal weight😂
I have lymphadema in upper outside thighs on both legs. It hurts and they are sometimes mich bigger and heavier than other times. I always had weird shaped legs but when menopause started they big funky part of my upper thighs got heavy with fluid. I fight it constantly. I pray daily my legs won't get that big.

@@evaglave5194I can't afford it. Nothing off the rack fits because my upper thighs are so big. I am on a fixed income and extras are hard to do.

Is your thyroid out of wack? I've known a lot of people get that from poorly or under medicated thyroid problems. My doctor had to prescribe me potassium a d vitamin d 3 as well, because I was so deficient that my thyroid medication wasn't working.
I lost 127 pounds in nine days in the hospital. They gave me dietetic medicine both by pill and IV. I am wearing a catheter and still taking the medicine.
