Swedish Dercum’s Study Participants Needed

Ola Winqvist MD, PhD at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden needs patients with Type 3 Dercum’s Disease to participate in a blood draw. Type 3 Dercum’s consists of larger, very nodular lipomas, is often found in the absence of generalized obesity, and is the type most men have. Dr. Winqvist has already studied Dercum’s Type 2, so it is important to ascertain that you have Type 3 Dercum’s. If you think you qualify, please contact Dr. Karen Herbst at kaherbst@gmail.com.
