I like to shovel snow and so I've been roaming around the condo area cleaning snow away from the fire hydrant and shoveling off the neighbors deck. Not a good idea. It caused the lymphedema in my left arm to flare up. I have daily issues with my arm but its usually not too bad. The past couple of days it's been swollen and achy. I'm going to have to go to see my physical therapist and I'm hoping that she doesn't have to wrap it. I wish I could see some sort of lymph vessel mapping of my body. I think there's a study that's done with a dye but I'm sure it' not cheap. It's discouraging to think that I will have to deal with this for the rest of my life.
