Re: Would like to speak to someone with lymphedema
Hi- i think we have alot in common-diag. last may stage3. I developed lymphedema in march '10 my arm is not bad, but my hand gets pretty swollen. i do self massage 2xa day. i'm new to this posting stuff and don't really understand how you could get in touch with me to talk, but i'd be willing to. fyi-i get my port out tomorrow, and am not real comfortable with that. i'd rather keep it. sounds weird huh.
