      I bought my compression garments on line through Lymphedema Products. The prices are good. Definitely be sure you measure. There is another one I have bought from on line. I will try to remember it. Good luck. Sandy

      Hello Deb, Thinking of you.

    • Hug

      From QueenieEJC March 27, 2008

      Is it just your foot that got extra puffy? Is it warm to the touch? Is the skin tender? How about redness? One always has to be on the alert for cellulitis with lymphedema. I would suggest that you see your MLD therapist, but you don't have one yet, I recall...in which case, I'd see your doctor if the Flexi, elevation & wrapping don't help. Hugs, Pat
