Re: Update on lymphedema ?
Thank you ladies for your responses! My arm is not warm, or red. The dr. said he thought it felt hard? Pain only when my arm rest on a hard surface. Time tells all. Also, I had my dermatologists appt. today who said he knows nothing about lymph-edema though if he had to guess he would say it was lymph-edema. (too many guessers lol) I'm allergic to two of the antibiotic groups so I'm actually waiting until Sunday to start the antibiotic. ( I have a big shin dig this Saturday and don't want any surprise reactions) I will let you know how it goes. Thanks again Amazing Women!
