@Zoffiel - sorry to hear you are having a shit time. I would also be pissed if I wanted to see my oncologist and got an inferior minion. I go and see mine at a certain hospital on a certain day as if I was to go and see her at the other hospital that is closer to may I may see her or I may see the minion. Daily yoga practice is such a good thing for your mind and body - its good that you are keeping that up.
I have had swelling in my lymph node removal arm since just after I started chemo - my physio said she wont call it proper lymphedema until post chemo as it could be swelling from any number of things.

Only time will tell is its from chemo or true lymphedema - if it is just another thing that has/is happened/happening to my body to piss me off!!
@kmakm - you poor thing - that does not sound pleasant and Im sure you could live without hearing whinging for the sake of whinging at home.
Thinking of both you ladies
