  • Julie Williams I was diagnosed with stage 2 lymphedema just a few months ago. I have it in my feet all the way op below my chest. It is miserable. I started therapy 2 weeks ago and have managed to get it down with massage and being wrapped. The swelling started in January while I was in the hospital with my husband that suffered a major stroke. I could not sleep and was under so much stress. We were in the hospital for 30 days and I am now his caregiver full time. I had to quit my job of 14 years. Life seems a little rough at the moment and I feel like I may never look normal again. At age 50 last summer I was wearing a sz 8 and riding horses with my husband. I have gained about 40 lbs and am extremely depressed. I need support for sure so glad to find this site

  • Sharyn Cates Hello and God bless you all. I have lymphedema in my left arm and hand. It is from Brest cancer surgery. I had a double mastectomy. Also 10 lymph nodes removed in my left arm. I am trying to manage it myself. I just went to a therapy center last month. I bought a compression garment. I came upon this group. Thanks for the information. God bless you all and happy 4 th of July.
