Howdy Sherry! Thank you for mentioning about the wet ears!!! I've had that now for a while, and I had no idea that it was connected with Dercum's; I just kept...
Howdy Cynthia! I totally agree with you about avoiding the surgeries!! All of the research I have done, says to avoid surgery, especially if you have...

Hi Kristina, I have the spasms too, and I don't take any pain meds, so I'd say its part of the disease. My brain fog is getting so bad I make stupid mistakes...
Howdy Calle! For me personally, I live on the GK Diet. It is low-glycemic, and is wonderful. There is a lot of variety, if you aren't allergic to a number of...

Dear Calle, No, your lumps won't disappear or get smaller, and probably all hte pain won't go away. For me it is more a matter of just feeding my body what it...
