Are you in USA or UK? If UK, the Lymphoedema Support Network (this is their healthunlocked patient forum) lymphoedema.org/ If in the USA, try the National Lymphedema Network - lymphnet.org/

If you have been diagnosed, ask to be referred to a Lymphoedema Clinic

Hi Caroline - I'm a lymphoedema therapist (physiotherapist with extra training in lymphoedema). In Australia, we have a register of therapists who can help. As Lynora has mentioned, you can also look for help through LSN or NLN. Which country are you in? Your doctor is also welcome to contact any lymphoedema organization for more info or training.

Not what you're looking for?
