How are you doing? I am not doing very well at all. I had fibrosis in both breasts - noticed and diagnosed it myself. Then I sent photos to doctor office, they said yes. I gave up on trying to ask them anything fairly quickly. They would just say yes when yes is not even the answer to anything. I developed lymphedema fairly quickly mostly in my feet ankles after surgery. My arms look horrible all the way down from the armpit to the wrist from the lymph node removal. The right one which had 7 removed is much more stratified than the left.
