Has anyone had their lipedema symptoms progress really fast both pain and appearance wise?

Basically what the title says.

Since the moment I discovered what lipedema was a couple of months ago my symptoms have worsened extremely quickly and my body has changed (and is still changing) so fast it isn't giving me much time to come to terms with it all.

I've recently came in contact with a nutritionist specialized in lipedema and other autoimmune diseases diets, so I'm hoping that her intervention will help me to at least slow down progression - but I'm so scared tbh. I've always had body image issues but lipedema is definitely making them worse.

Has any of you experienced a quick progression and managed to stop it or at least slow it down?
