My heart goes out to you. I only had 3 removed and am having lots of lymphedema issues. The best advise I can give you is to keep seeking out a good massage therapist that has knowledge of lymphatic massage. I go every other week and do what I can in between. I will never stop. It is the best thing for me. I have also tried and ,when it’s not too hot , use compression. It does help. I hope you have a major turn around and find the help you need.

@jkh before I log off, I meant to ask you… do they have something for lymphedema that can drain the fluid out of your body? Like a pump/or suction? (Other than a massage… something that drains the fluid out?

@jkh Thank you for sharing!! I’ve been crying now for the 4th day I was fine until I logged onto this app and read all the messages lol, Very informational app, also a very emotional app. Omg you only had 3 removed 🥹 and you’re experiencing/experienced lymphedema… 16 nodes taken is serious… I pray for us all.
Thank you, I really really appreciate you speaking to me. ❤️
