Dercum's Hope - What is Dercum's Disease? Sections Search Articles Main What is it? Resources Survey ... Log In This article is about to undergo a major expansion, thanks to the ideas from Dorrit, Ann, and Fran. There will be more on obesity (or lack thereof), the severity of the disability Dercum's can cause, a better explanation of the depression and confusion (brainfog), and since I found a reference in the primary literature about peripheral insulin resistance I'll include that too. If anyone has other comments to make before I write the next version, please e-mail me at denise@dercumshope.org Article by Denise Loving, MS Diagnosis Diagnosis requires a history of at least three months of chronic pain in fatty tissue , either constant or recurring. Some articles add (1) generalized obesity, which is not always present asthenia (loss of strength) and excessive fatigue and (3) mental disturbances, including depression familial multiple lipomatosis , which is an inherited condition of usually non-painful lipomas, lipodystrophy , and Painful fat can occur anywhere on the body, including the head and neck. Some people have tender or painful fat deposits literally from the top of their head to the soles of their feet. They are almost always in the subcutaneous fat layer, although it seems that at times they can invade other tissues. It appears that not a lot is known about how often that happens.
