The left is the worst. I use Farrows as I have a crumbling spine an these are easier to put on. The question is there anything else I could use to reduce the swelling?

Hi Big Leg what can I say you really are a star. thank you. I am not sure which thing actually brought on the lymphoedema as you saw from my history it could have been either of the major accidents I have suffered or something else. What is for sure I have it :) as well as Fibro.

I am now fifty-nine an entering my glorious 60th year I am exceedingly positive just sum what hampered . The osteoporrosis in my spine is proving to be an increasing challenge, never sure which bit will be screaming next.

Many many thanks for the links I shall certainly have a look.

Best wishes for Christmas
