Hi everyone, I’ve had breast cancer and have been left with lymphoedema in my arm, hand and breast, I’m now wearing a compression sleeve and glove from the hospital, does anyone know where I can get more of them please? I’m struggling to find them online, thank you 

  • You should be referred to a nurse who whol measure you and order or give you 2. Coukd your breast nurse or consultant organise this?

    Yes my breast nurse measured me and I’ve got 2 sleeves and gloves, the gloves get so dirty so quickly and one of the sleeves has snagged already and I’ve only worn it at work for a day. I just wanteRoflspare one’s as I have to wear them everyday. They are a nude colour and it looks like I’ve got an artificial arm! I was just thinking I could get colourful ones it wouldn’t look so bad Rofl
