Welcome @ftknoxco1660, There's no cure for lymphedema. Treatment focuses on reducing the swelling and preventing complications - https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/lymphedema/diagnosis-treatment/drc-20374687.

I was diagnosed 5 or so years ago and wear compression socks to control the swelling during the day. Have you been diagnosed with lymphedema?

On my latest PET SCAN , thru the pelvic region my CLL/SLL IS back which is affecting my edema causing leg heaviness , swelling on tops of feet, ankles swelling.
For me a future problem since I HAD A DVT IN 85
