He was from the mid-west of America and had been going to a Veteran's Hospital. His doctor, who had been a corpsman during the Viet Nam War, came back from the war and became a doctor. He, the doctor, said the tumors were caused from dioxin that was used in Agent Orange. Now dioxin is used a lot of things - including pesticides, herbicides, fungicides.

Den drabb a r företrädesvis 20-40-åriga kvinnor, men kan även debutera hos barn. Kännetecknande är en uttalad smärta i fettväven. Patienterna har liksom fibromyalgikerna ofta nonchalant avfärdats med att "alla feta har lite ont" Sjukdomen är dock klassificerad av WHO.

I have an extremely rare incurable disease called: Adiposis Dolorosa. It is also known as "Dercum's Disease". So far I have only found about 20 people that have this disease. There is NO cure. There is NO treatment. There is only supportive medications which are mainly pain pills. When this all first started, back on September 23, 1997, it started out as pain in my hands and arms. There was a lot of weakness and my hands and arms were going to sleep. In addition there was a huge lump inside the crook of my elbow on my left arm. It was about the size of a walnut. To just touch it sent me into tears as it was so painful. They thought it was Carpal Tunel, but ruled that out. Then they said it was Over-Use. I hadn't been typing much since September when it hit, and yet I was not getting any better. I had been begging my doctor, Doctor Fillingame, since September to do a biopsy on the first lump and he never would. Then I started asking him to refer me to a specialist and he wouldn't do that either. Since September I developed tumors on both my arms. The one huge lump at the crook of my elbow on my left arm turned into more lumps up the inside of my arm. In addition I developed another huge lump in the crook of the elbow in my right arm. At that point I started getting tumors, multiple tumors daily. They would grow very rapidly. What would start out the size of a pin head would become the size of a peach pit by the end of the day. Each visit I begged and pleaded with my doctor to please do a biopsy or send me to a specialist and he wouldn't
