I have a success story to share regarding my treatments program for secondary lymphedema brought on by an infection. I started over two years ago with the MLD and compression wraps with a therapist. I then began my own work with exercises, hot and cold water and then started acupunture. I am happy to say that my affected leg is now almost identical as my other one and the foot and ankle are getting closer with every acupuncture treatment. I have before pictures and will be taking some after ones in a couple of weeks. I have been talking through the mechanism for healing that the acupunture is taking me through and it is making sense to both doctors that I have seen. There is now a clinical trial for acupuncture starting at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York for people who have lymphedema in an arm. I want to share my work.
