- Ann Denk I clicked on the person's name which then brought up a small icon that looks like a pencil. I clicked on that and got the option to accept friend request. Hope this helps.

Nereida Colon-Moyeno I joined years ago, and never really kept up. Have lymphedema in both legs now. Doctor can't explain how it went from one leg to the other. Nothing new. I'm always told by doctors that I'm weird (so what else is new? I know that!) Turning 65 at the beginning of next year. Thank you Margaret Webb for the invite. I'll try to get on this more often. I try to keep active although it's getting harder, but I push forward. Working part-time now.
linda e so i have had lymphedema in both legs since at least 2014. It was misdiagnosed a couple of times, I was given advice to take water pills and sleep more. Finally another doctor who was listening in on that last bit of advice, sent me to a specialist who diagnosed me and put the fear of the Almighty in me about scratching the rashes i was getting (you all know, you dont want to break the skin) So i am fortunate, we have specialists here, and therapists, Even so, you are mostly on your own with this. I have periods where i lose ground and periods where i stay even, Times i don't feel like trying and times i over-do it. Sometime on the same day. I am trying physical therapy again, Starting with water therapy, which is going well. I highly recommend it.
Pam Howard Hi everyone! Let me first say that my love and prayers go out to everyone suffering from this horrible condition ( or whatever doctors want to call it
