This week I managed to get 6 sessions of lymphatic drainage massage through NHS. People speak to your specialists as they can refer you. I was told NHS doesn't refer, my question was what happened to preventative treatment. I showed the results of me having these massages have saved me from pain and discomfort. Through these massages I had no problem with movement on both arms and will not develop Lymphodema on my arm. My Lymphodema specialists was very understanding and as I have started the treatment by myself they can help me through. Good news and more will come as I am not gonna sit back anymore to see what happens, if I can help to drive towards change why not.
