Hi @Kristen, thanks for your reply, I appreciate you letting me know about your experience. I have some concerns about how much time / effort it takes to set up and do all the preparation and then do the pump each day given I'm working and commuting 4 days p/wk, which takes 10-12hrs out of my day.
I've been avoiding doing the cobanding at the moment as it's so hot but think I'll give that another go before I do anything further, as well as the other things that usually help e.g arm exercises etc. I've never used the roller ball so would be interested to know more about that. My swelling is mostly in my forearm and I do get some hand swelling since I had to have a basal cell carcinoma removed from the back of my hand so would the roller help with that?
Thanks for the link to the Facebook group. I will look at joining. I guess I've been in denial about this issue for quite a while but really I could do with extra support / ideas from those that are living with this problem. Thank you xx
