My recent post talked about my week in Vermont. Because I flew to Vermont, I was unable to take my flexi-touch with me. It is very bulky and would have needed its' own suitcase. I wondered what would happen when I stopped using the lymphodemia device for a length of time. I found out. I use the device 1 hour every day for my lymphodedmia. The device gentle massages and moves the fluid so I don't swell. I definitely had a flare-up as a result of that week. Yes I did manual massage, but it was not enough. This helped me know that it does work and is worth the hour a night. I usually watch old tv shows on netflix. It does help me relax and no one can call for "mom" to help them. I am the one who needs help at that time.
Keep Fighting,
Cathy
