I have been struggleing for years. I now have garments on my legs that wear  24/7, it is a constant struggle now since I have congested heart failure too. Now my older brother has it in his legs too. It seems such a hard struggle, physical and mentally too. a few years ago I was admitted to the hospital were they took almost 45 of water off of me in 3 days. I think people who have lymphedema are the strongest people in the world, we have no cure, insurance companies don't pay for our garments or medical needs, and we still go on.  less
