So glad I'm here. I just discovered another reason J's RO is an idiot. First, I had to ask him if lymphedema was going to be a side-effect. He said, "Oh yeah! I forgot to tell you about that!" Then, I asked if there would be anything that would help--compression, massage, etc. He said, "No. He'll have a bit of a turkey waddle." Completely inept.

Thank you for the information.
