I wrote a question acouple days ago... about my lymph-edema of my legs and feet. There was a nice lady that is a Nurse and physical therpy nurse for over 25 years.. told me contact her..but did not leave no contact address. So If you are her please contact me..back at honeygram_47@yahoo.com
She sounded very helpful in giving me some hope and relief of the pain I am in daily.
Or, if anyonelse knows any thing to do......please also contact me... thanks a bunch....... Carol in OHIO

My daughter has this condition. She goes to therapy occasionally for massage. She went 3-4 times a week in the beginning, but as they got the swelling a little under control, she was able to cut her visits down to once a week, and now she just goes when she's having a problem.
She also wraps her legs at night with ace bandages and she wears special hose during the day.
She's seen a lot of improvement, and when she does everything the way she's supposed to, she doesn't suffer from the pain she once had. Great incentive!

I saw a show on Discovery Health where a woman had really bad lymphedema in one of her legs--she had to get a lot of therapy--mainly lymphatic drainage massage and some physical therapy. She also had to keep her leg wrapped up in ace bandages to keep it from getting so swollen. It really helped her out a lot--maybe you should get some of that lymphatic massage therapy. It looked really bad when she had it--I'm sorry to hear you're plagued with it. Hope you get some relief, and good luck!
