Hi If you want a patterned garment that has compression then the main make is one called lymphedivas which you can access via their website lymphedivas.com or you can get non compression covers for your existing sleeves and their are a couple of makes arm candy which you can get via warriorwear4u.com or my sassy sleeves which you can get through the accessories section of armsleeves4u.com. There is a UK based distributor and I will try and access the information and post later for you.

weren't lymphedivas going to start using a uk importer at some point, so people didn't have to play the import tax lottery?

cancer, if you go to breastcancercare.org.uk & try to find your way round their forums (they're not running at their smoothest at the moment, i understand) there were posts about it in the lymphoedema threads (scroll down the left hand menu & it's under a section called sthg like 'living with bcc' or 'after treatment' or sthg) some time before may when i sopped using them, but if you start a new thread someone'll probably pop up eventually

phoenixlincs, have you heard about this or did i make it up??
