Today is the last authorized day of physical therapy for my lymphedema flare up. I know I could get more visits approved, but if the PT thinks it's not helping, she won't recommend more treatment.
I am worried that I won't be able to manage this flare up without professional help and don't know what I'll do if I have to. Yes, I will be measured for a new sleeve and glove. That's the next step at this point. My six month old sleeve and glove are too worn out to be effective any more.
But if the bandaging isn't helping at night, and the sleeve and glove aren't providing enough compression during the day, what's left?
I guess I will find out in a few hours. In the meantime, stress.
