Listen to our conversation of how within the first 48 hours of the blog being live went. Enjoy!

Excellent! I love Alexa!!! She is such an inspiration!
My name is Lois, and I developed lymphedema in my left breast (2014) off n on after a breast biopsy. Later, the lymphedema developed in both legs (feet to stomach) after suffering with venous insufficiency. After having a varicose vein procedure in Jun 2020, I lost 10 lbs of fluid in my legs. I am now left with lymphedema in my thighs n stomach area n using a compression pump daily. Need to hear others stories that may give me insight on mind. If we can go to the moon then man can find a cause for this condition. Let me hear from you if you are going through the same thing. Thanks
My name is Lois. I wrote a hour ago. I failed to say, I have received massage therapy since June 2020 but I am still suffering. It has now moved to my wrists, breast, stomach n legs. Please can someone educate these internal medicine doctors about lymphedema. It’s sad n hurtful when u go into a doctors office n they tell, I don’t see anything. I listened to you podcast n hope that I can talk to someone. I lived in the Dallas Tx area. Thanks
