Detailed Answer:
Hi,Dear,Thanks for the query to HCM.
-I studied your query in depth and understood your concerns.

-Bloated abdomen with bilateral wrapped up legs and 4 hrly cauterization are your main concerns.

-Your history and the investigations part are little confusing as they are not pointing towards any specific cause. I would like more details from your end to help you better. Please answer the following.

Were any supportive tests done for lymphoedema diagnosis?
What's the MRI /CAT Scan reports of the legs and abdomen?
What's the recent hepatic/liver profile test reports?

Please write in detail about your symptoms, and about the bloated abdomen - onset, duration, when does it subside or if it does not subside at all.

I would also like to know more about your treatment history.

My opinion-
Still on the data and facts given from your query-
In my opinion-You seem to have-Phlebolymphoedema as all your parameters and diagnostic tests are Normal.
-I would need Duplex Imaging report-for study of the venous flows.
