The therapist does a good job of making sure she’s not causing pain while draining. It always feels good afterwards when the swelling is down. Sounds like I will need to go for regular and frequent visits for a while. And once we have the lymphedema under control may only need to go every 4 to 6 weeks for maintenance. I am seeing a private therapist that specializes in lymphedema therapy. I am scheduled next week at a different location that was booked through the cancer clinic. It will be interesting to see how they manage the therapy. I chose to go private because I didn’t want to wait the 6 weeks for the one connected to my cancer clinic. The difference is that I pay for the private therapy out of pocket whereas insurance pays for the other.
