  • Janace Brown just getting used to diagnosis of Lipedema. My therapist has released me as ready to care for at home. Do I need a medical Doctor to monitor all of my efforts or just when cellulitis recurrs?

  • Gwen Chinn I had a modified radical mastectomy nineteen years ago and did not have lymphedema until last summer. I have been followed recently in a lymphedema clinic near where I live and even though I have had to adapt and change how I do things from now on, I am glad I sought help when I did. I now wear a compression sleeve and try to stay positive.

  • Victoria Goodspeed To prevent lymphedema, would it be better to fly 6 hours direct or break it up into 5 hours and 1 1/2 hours ?  or does it matter?

  • Beverly Mather Thank you Bernadette.  I will look up "living well with lymphedema" the book.  I know so little about it as yet.
