    Oh and I developed Stage 1 lymphodema 6 months ago - so glad it was picked up by the physio treating my seroma.

    Hooray! Good luck with the cording, hope that clears up a bit more quickly.

    I've seen your posts rather late but just wanted to wish you well in every aspect of your treatment. I'm located on the Gold Coast and attend physiotherapy in Helensvale. My Physio is a specialist in treating fluid build up, seroma and lymphatic. This has helped me just about more than anything else. For anyone reading this & in need of a very good Physio on the GC, I'd be pleased to provide details. Best wishes  <3

    good to know @ValerieLouise especially when they exit me from the public hospital system. I went to a younger OT to see if I could have extra sessions but because it was something that she wasn't familiar with she didn't want to massage the seroma whereas my hospital physio was very sure about the benefits of lymphodema massage. 
    I'm going to have my first appointment with a breast plastic surgeon to discuss possible options. The next step begins :-) Jules
