Are there any PCOSers with Lymphedema here?

I have been losing weight. I am supposed to start lymphedema treatments for my leg. Actually my weight varies a lot. Much of me is fluid right now. My left leg is twice as swollen and my right one is much thinner and normal. My doctor even wants me to get a pannilectomy to take the pressure of the belly apron which has fallen due to weight loss. remember i was in the 600s. Somewhere in the 400s now. I am swollen in that area too. I am on Aldactone for water as well as the PCOS help. I am NOT in heart or kidney failure have been tested...but the edema is quite bad in these areas.

I am wondering if any PCOSers face edema problems. I know this is weight related but it seems worse then many other even supersize people face. Thanks.
