Keep doing what’s working for you! Recent research (including a speaker at a BCNA forum) indicates that lifting weights as part of an exercise program will do no harm for those already with lymphoedema and may actually help. Gradual progression from light weights (1-2 kilos) of course, with the usual caveats - don’t overdo it, stop if the arm feels uncomfortable!
