Should I wear compression sleeves on long flight?
Hi Everyone, I had my first mastectomy in 2019, and again after recurrence on the other side 2023. The surgeon removed only 3 lymph nodes on each side. I had quite bad cording each time but no lymph...
Yes. I already have lymphoedema and you don’t want to. It’s manageable and mine is pretty stable but not having it is better. You probably don’t need a tailor made garment, as it’s just for a short period but taking precautions before is a heap better than remedial actions after. Enjoy your trip!
