Hope you are doing your exercises to try to avoid lymphoedema. I wore my sleeve for every infusion over that 18 month period and for radiotherapy as i had radio to 4 sites including axilla where all lymph nodes had been removed. Wore till swelling and heaviness went .
Keep up.the positive attitude - you are over the worst now. Remember to be kind to yourself. Do what you can and can the rest!
