How to move on when managing lymphedema?
- Question from Ellen: I'd like to "move beyond" breast cancer, but with lymphedema, I find I am aware of it and my limitations daily, and it becomes depressing. What would you recommend?
- Answers - Mitch Golant Well, there's been some pretty good data on exercise programs, very tailored therapy for women with lymphedema. I would definitely talk to your doctor for a prescription for physical therapy with someone qualified and trained. There are some movements that are more helpful than others.
