Would you happen to know what the mask was called. Was there a special name for it. I had to have a radical neck dissection in June of 2010 after two tumors on my tongue spread to my lymph node in the neck. It had attached itself to my carotid artery. The surgeon felt the best option was to remove all the nodes in the neck. Since then i have been plagued by the edema. My insurance will not cover the therapy and i can't afford to pay out of pocket for it. I have spent so many hours on the net trying to find some kind of answer and called so many companys but no luck!No one seems to have anything for the neck. Most times they think i have had breast cancer. Then when i tell them no its tongue and neck cancer they are at a loss as to how to help me. I have lost a little over 100 lbs but not in my face. I feel like i look so odd with A huge jaw and neck. My oncologist had recommended the therapy and gave me a script for it. When i told him my insurance wouldn't cover it he had suggested a pressure sock but never gave me a script for one. Any help or info anyone might have would really be appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
Jen
