I do a lot of flying and find I do get (mild) problems if I forget to wear my sleeve. My oncology nurse advised me where to get the sleeve (a medical supply company that sold all sorts of health aids from bandages, support stockings and incontinence apparatus to wheelchairs and household appliances)and I found them very knowledgable about what sort I would need to suit my purposes depending on the surgery I had had etc. If you have a lymphoedema clinic in your town they may have supplies for you to look at and be able to order what you need. You need to be measured up and sometimes the sleeve may need to be specially made for you, so allow time.
Regards,
Vicki
