@roblem I just wanted to let you know that not much has happened since this post. I have contacted Tactile several times over the last 2 months. Each time, crickets. It only leaves me guessing that either they are short on supplies or there is something in my case that is holding it up.

This is strange because at the time of my demonstration back in late Oct, they said the equipment would arrive shortly. Then came requests for a follow up appointment with the PT at Mayo. Which I did, and it wasn’t free. Both the Dr and PT person (2 separate appointments no less) said the same thing they did back in June. I felt like those appointments didn’t add any value.

Tactile asked me to forward the information from those appointments. I did. And nothing since.

It’s possible that since my insurance starts over on Nov 1 in terms of deductible, that my coverage was not so good because Tactile dragged the process out from Oct. but the least they could do is tell me.

One last possibility is that my lymphedema, or the lack of a serious issue, makes me unqualified.

So I continue to do the self massage daily and wear the compression mask at night.
