Presently my biggest problem with lymphedema is a terrible itch in both swollen legs. I viewed some of the forums where other patients said to use coconut oil, tea tree oil and eucalyptus oil which helps for a while. Are there any other suggestions to help with the constant itching? Help.

Followed some of the recommendations from your posts to use coconut oil, tea tree oil and frankenscense oil. It has worked well for me. Another problem I have which still continues to date is extreme shortness of breathe. I can try to put on my socks and have to take awhile to get my breathing back??? Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this problem. Would greatly appreciate hearing from someone to hopefully help my situation. Thanks  less
