You've got to find a new doctor or a second doctor that specializes in your kind of lymphedema. I saw my specialist today and she didn't know of anyone in your area but she's not familiar with your area at all. She pointed out to me that you and I have very different kinds of lymphedema with your is being caused by a heart condition. She said once your leg is healed that wrapping wood be important. Once your leg is under control and you're ready for garments to wear after the wrapping phase go to compression Guru. Com they are the lowest priced and most knowledgeable dealers for garments bandages compression socks the whole nine yards of everything that you can use. Please find a lymphedema doctor don't go on letting this get worse and worse. Cellulitis is no joke and if it goes septic on you it's real serious. If you can't find a lymphedema specialist maybe you should look at wound care specialist who can help you with getting your leg under control to where it's not weeping and then you can start wrapping it and controlling it. Life is a lot easier once you have this thing under control. Good luck love and blessings
