Using Benadryl & cortisone cream. The bite area circles are beginning to harden. I plan on calling my regular dr today. Sometime soon because they really itch!!!!

  • Beth Brinkley I am hunting info on high volume running and lymphedema of the leg. I have some slight swelling of that leg most of the time but it does increase with really long distances. It usually resolves in a day or 2. I don't wear compression and have just about quit using my pump. My problem is a sense of fatigue in both legs. Most days, I feel tired in my legs only at the first step of a run, regardless of whether I have rested or not. It seems to be getting worse. Do you think it's the lymphedema? HELP!!! I can not in any way consider quitting running or really cutting back for that matter.
