Amy,

Sorry, I didn't pick up on the fact that you had a bilateral disection.

I sent an email off to my lymphedema therapist with your question and I'll get back to you as soon as I hear back from her. If I don't hear from her on Monday, I have my regular follow-up visit with my surgeon on Tuesday morning and I will see if she is in and ask her directly.
