I'm about to make a cross-country trip via airplane. It used to be fun. Now I've got to wear support hose, lymphedema sleeves on both arms and a lymphedema glove on one hand. As if I don't sweat enough at my age!
Lymphedema will be with me forever. Most days I can't get my watch on my left arm and it's been over a year since I've been able to comfortably wear a ring. I can actually see myself blow up if I do too much with my left arm.
But flying makes it worse. I have to be extra careful. So I'm pulling out the sleeves, the glove and the stockings and off we go. Wish me luck!
