  • Laney Brackman I was wondering if anyone might have experience with a surgical drain placed in a leg affected with lymphedema. I recently had surgery on my swollen leg and subsequently developed a seroma that required a drain to be placed. Now, after two weeks, the drainage is still pretty high and it seems I will never get it out. Could the lymphedema impact the amount of drainage?

  • Evelynne Goldman Hi,  LE was diagnosed in my legs about 25 years ago when I lived in London, UK.  I now live in Israel and haven't found the right consultant yet.  I will be in Boston MA in January, staying in Sharon and would love to meet up with anyone there.  Please let me know if there are any meetings too.
