Your situation sounds odd in comparison to normal treatment but I'm so glad it worked. I am very surprised they gave you a time frame, when it sounds like you had no metastacies.
That said lymphatic massage will help build new lymph pathways, also being active will help as well. Even if it's just walking a dog. Hugs and welcome.
