Thank you guys...I see my RO on December 31st and I'll bring it up to him. I didn't use the down blanket just the sheet last night and everything seemed okay. But, guess what? I woke up today with probably the worst case of lymphedema, primarily on the side of my neck dissection. I don't know if it's a coincidence or not with not sweating. I look like I'm storing nuts on my left side of my face/neck like a chipmunk...just not as cute.

Btw, food doesn't taste putrid anymore...the flavors are not great but at least they don't seem rancid.
