After therapy today, I had an evaluation with the Lymphedema section of the hospital. They took some measurements. discussed some treatments for the swelling in my right calf, and applied a compression stocking to help reduce the swelling.
After wearing it for a few hours, I have to say that I don’t know how women live with it everyday. It's kind of like wearing women’s hose.
How do I know what that feels like? Let’s just say that I do, and leave it at that.
A word about my blog .....
I'm using this blog to keep notes on my life and experiences, plus to keep track of my own recovery from a stroke (December 2006).
For those of you who were not aware, my brother, John, died on February 10, 2010. His remains were cremated and interred at Green Hills Memorial Park.

HAHAHAHA Did you lose a bet?
No. Actually, I won a dare by an ex-girlfriend. But that was when I was young and stupid. I'm not young anymore.
