I am 27 years old and have been living with lympedema of both feet for the past 12 years. This is a condition that results from either chemotherapy or either one is born with it. I was born with under developed lymph system and that has resulted in the swelling of both of my feet and legs and it causes pain. Being a woman at that age with this condition has made my dating life sooo difficult. My boyfriend broke up with me 2 years ago because of my condition and have not dated ever since. I wonder if anyone will ever like me and knowing that i will be like that for the rest of my life ,it is killing,. I am so lonely everyone needs someone to love. The thought of starting a family one day scares because preganancy makes the condition worse. Is any one out there going through the same.

This condition had such a huge impact in my life. I feel like there is a void from within. My friends of the same age are either married or in a stable relationships.

Thank you for listening.
