    Thanks you both and yes, it

    Thanks you both and yes, it was fantastic hearing the good news for a change. Now I have to deal with this lymphedema. I did go to the first therapy session this past week and she showed me the massage technique that I hope works along with the compression bandage.

    The swelling, when it is at its worst, is starting to affect my swallowing some and my breathing thru my nose when I'm trying to sleep.
