Swollen stomach

Morning all, my stomach from under breast down has been swollen for months now which makes me look 6month pregnant I have had a ultra sound but everything normal so I wonder if it could be Lymphodema to match my legs.

If I'm reading your post correctly, you already have Lymphodema in your legs, if that's right it may be worth getting an appointment at your Lymphoedema clinic, good luck x

I have lymphoedema in both my legs following removal of my abdominal nodes. For some reason I also get a swelling above my waist line which is above the nodes that were removed. Nobody has told me if this can be expected.

Hi, my swelling doesnt come and go it is the same all the time i havnt had cancer or lymph nodes removed from anywhere but i have read rheumatoid arthritis causes lymphoedema which is what i have.
