Hi BonnieR
Thanks for your imput. I called everywhere this morning trying to get someone familiar with Lymphedema to look at it.evryone keep telling me they could not see her unless she was referred by a Dr.We finally went to her GP and he said it was a normal swelling from a wasp sting and to keep an eye on it.Well the sting was on her hand and it is she is swollen past her elbow.She is scheduled for back surgery tomorrow and she is just praying this does not hold it up.
Like you said we must keep the faith.
Thanks
Cole
