What's My Best Option For Multiple Lipoma Removal? I Have Hundreds.

Ken2652
I've got a hundred lipomas from my thighs to my arms, LG & S. There are so many that I think they are causing fatigue in my legs and causing some blood vessel restriction on my thighs. I'm considering going to Mexico or Canada to get cheaper rates for lipoma removal because I have so many. Is getting a student surgeon also a possible alternative? I'm pretty desperate and if any doctors out there can offer their candid advice I'd be forever grateful. -Ken, hopeful in Watsonville, CA
