This video was just posted on the breast cancer forum I post to.

The video is very slow but stick with it. The information appears to be good, but I am interested in feed back from those of you who familiar with treatment for lymphedema.

It appears to be common sense applied to the knowledge of the lymphatic system.

I am interested in what your mom has to say.
