After mastectomy & radiotherapy treatment, now have swollen arm that can be controlled by compression treatment which I'm going through. Caused by radiotherapy.
Would like to know how other breast cancer patients are dealing with this. My arm swelling is not reducing. Know it takes time & have to live with swollen arm for rest of my life Just like to know how other patients are dealing with this. xx
