I was very glad to read this report that researchers at the University of Missouri are leading the American Lymphedema Framework Project, to develop a standard of care.

it's encouraging to read that these developments are in the works; so long overdue. I've suffered from lymphedema since my mastectomy. I recently spent four days in the hospital because of cellulitis, an infection in my arm that has lymphedema and is forever compromised.
ReplyDeleteMy arm will never be the same; it's just something I've learned to live with. I have numb and strange sensations in my arm, my shoulder, back, and under the arm. But I'm lucky to be alive!
I had cellulitis in my breast before rads....it was scary!
ReplyDeleteThanks for all the comments....you are an angel. We need to figure out how to get more readers commenting!!!
