I don’t like my lymphoedema compression sleeve

I had all sorts of trouble with mine at first but my therapist said just take it off for a break every few hours and that was much better. I still can't sleep in one as I bend my elbow in sleep and my hand goes to sleep. I was thinking in future if i had to wear it in sleep I might make a long button hole where my veins are in my elbow so the pressure isn't on that spot.
