Thank you so much. I wish I could've found someone like you 40 years ago. My swelling started in one leg when 20.... I saw several specialists but they never offered soultions. I am now 59 and can finally see my ankles when following your instructions. God bless and thanks again.

@@toliessiacollins2530 - Surgery done by surgeons who specialize in lymphedema can be effective. They can now transplant healthy lymph glands from areas where they they will not be greatly missed to areas of trouble. They can transplant lymph vessels from glands that aren't working to glands that are. It can be quite effective in some people, but not as much in others. Research is ongoing. My lymphedema therapist told me that they are now doing prophylactic lymph system surgery for those that must get breast cancer surgery in order to prevent edema in the first place. If interested, contact a major medical center that works with cancer patients - they may have such specialists on staff. Even if you are not a surgical candidate, they can still set up a treatment regimen for you. For instance, the lymphedema clinic (through the plastic surgery department) at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in NYC does not think I am a surgical candidate because I have an immune disorder and a pacemaker. They are supervising my care by setting up a therapist program and by getting me leg pumps to use 60 minutes a day (more if needed). Supposedly, a pump can sometimes eliminate the need for stockings. Can't wait for it to arrive!

Now I found you on what I do all day now that I'm retired. Don't want to get on your nerves but what you are saying makes good sense. Thanks for doing what you are. With this swelling etc, it is new to a lot and finding help on it is a chore.

I have to say it’s very comforting to find your video. I was diagnosed the lipedema around 11 months ago. It has been horrible and painful! I have been hospitalized twice with cellulitis since this started. This all started because I gained a lot of weight with the pandemic. I have been trying to lose weight, which seems to be very difficult and I’m going to medical weight loss doctor soon, I’m actually still waiting for my first appointment with a specialist and have been waiting for the last four months. I feel discouraged and depressed. I just want my weeping wounds to go away. It opened up around four months ago and has not gotten better just gotten worse, there is no information about weeping wounds. All I have found is that you need to compress your legs and keep them clean which I do that anyways, but it doesn’t seem to do anything for the wounds only thing I have found that, but is a horrible process to dry out your legs. Before I knew about wrapping and compression, the hospital told me to do nothing - keep them clean but do not get them wet and try to just let them dry out and it took three months but I did that and the wounds healed for the first time they healed. Since then my wounds are back since swelling is a problem. I have wounds around my whole right leg and a little bit on my left leg and I’ve had them for a few months and they won’t go away, and I am so done and so tired of this, I just want to heal not to mention that I feel that Doctor don’t care enough to do anything for this disorder and since waiting four months for an appointment!😔😔😔😮 I was going to a Wound specialist for these weeping wounds that will not heal and I thought the whole point of going to wound specialist so they could help them heal and make them go away, the doctor would keep trying to pull the scabs off so it would not heal. Which I got really upset about because if they’re trying to scab up, that means that they’re trying to heal which they should be trying to help that right. Just recently, I noticed that I was having little wounds with pus popping up on my leg. I told the doctor at the wound clinic that it must be an infection and then I probably needed antibiotics. He said that there was nothing wrong with my leg and just ignore it. I found that to be very strange, but I listen to him for two weeks. then one morning I woke up and they had moved down my thigh and was spreading. I felt like I couldn’t wait any longer and I went to my doctor and found out that I had a staff infection. The doctor was shocked that the wound doctor did not do anything for this right away and that two weeks ago when it first popped up instead of telling me to ignore it he should’ve told me to go get antibiotics. I have totally lost trust in Doctors!! I feel like I don’t know how to take care of this the right way. The lack of help videos and informational videos for this condition is horrible. I pray every day that I’m not gonna get an infection. I have been washing my legs every day with soap, and then wrapping them up, the wounds are not getting any better. They’re not healing. Never mind the bandages are extremely expensive and I can hardly afford them. I don’t know what to do at this point. I feel extremely discouraged and depressed. Not to mention. This is a very painful disorder! I really wish there was more information out there that you could trust. I feel very lost about this.

Dear stephanieh pl stop sugar in all its form . Stop chicken pork ,prawns, mackerel, roasted peanutsand roasted grams. Eat lots of vegetables and fruits and fishes. Eat lots of fruits. Drink lots of water at least min of 3 liters. should drink beetroot juice mixed with coconut milk. Put a full Stop to milk and dairy products in ur diet. Try to drink smoothie of soaked almonds(remove the peels ) sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, raisins, dates and white sesame seeds. There is no need of sweetener as raisins and dates are enough. Also pl do lympatic drainage massage. You can see that on u tube. Lastly very important thing believe that Jesus loves you as u r today and he has already healed u by his wounds (1pet2/24). Pl repeat this bible verse many many times during a day and you'll see the difference in ur life. Dear I believe Lord Jesus has healed u and made you blessing to the nations.

A Yellow jacket or wasp sting!! I have developed lymphedema due to a severe ankle break years ago. It shows in my right toes,feet and ankle and calf. I wear otc support stockings. This summer I was stung at my elbow and a month later on my inner right thigh. I hadn’t had an insect sting for years. My arm swelled to almost twice it’s size down to my wrist and up to my armpit and burned and itched. I took Benadryl which did not really help. . Lymphedema did not even occur to me since I had/have only been having it in my right leg. A month later the inner thigh yellow jacket sting caused an even more extreme reaction. The swelling, burning, itching moved down my leg past my knee and up to my groin. The dr ordered a 6 day course of prednisone by mouth. The prednisone decreased the redness and itching, but not the swelling. But what really helped was following and doing what Kelly demonstrates on her leg lymphedema self massage drainage videos. I could actually feel the pockets of fluid behind my knee and at my groin. I could see the extra swelling in My toes, top of my foot, and my ankle. ❤ BTW I learned of lymphedema by randomly finding Kelly on KZbin and watching her videos. My pcp has never suggested / diagnosed this or offered treatment of any kind and may not even know that lymphedema is truly a thing!

Hi Kelly can you please help me? I had breast cancer in 2016/17. I had chemotherapy, I lost all my hair & developed a nasty fungal infection all over my scalp. Then I had a full right mastectomy, also lymphnode removal during my operation. This was to test the cancer had not spread into my lymphnodes. Three months after surgery, my skin became very itchy, I developed sores on my skin. I also noticed all my lymphnodes had swollen up. My feet, ankles and calfs were swollen as well as my arms hands. I went to the doctor and they said it was my osteoarthritis causing this. However I had arthritis from in my 30s and it had never flared up like this? I also never had lymphnode swelling before. Another three months and I felt awful. I felt something had taken over my whole body & mind. I had chronic fatigue and chronic pain. To a point the fatigue felt like I had a jelly brain. It's now 2022. I am still very sick. My lymphnodes are so swollen and more have a appeared on my collar bone. They are sitting together side by side. I have lumps in the palms of my hand, the soles of my feet. Also the sides of my feet. Large painful swelling at the side of my inner knee and a lump behind my knee. My whole body is swollen including my groin, stomach, where I had surgery there is a large lump at the end of the scar which turns up right to my chest. My arms legs neck jaw are so stiff I cannot move. Its like my whole body has seized up. I have a massive swelling down my left side just beneath my left breast bone. Most scary is I feel like there is a huge ball stuck in the middle of my chest and it's hard to breath. I have a lot of mucus build up and my skin is really bad. I'm worried and don't know what to do? Thank you.

Well doctor's in my area of Florida don't understand why I have this issue. I was born with this. My lower extremities swell all the way down. My stomach even feels tight when my legs swell. They don't know why. And it is not covered by insurance. Disability denied me. They said I was too young and they don't understand why or what happened where it's caused me to apply for disability. I am a Certified Nursing Assistant and I worked with heart patients. So they found it funny when I asked for help. But when they see my legs they send me to ER. They don't care. But I have to watch for blood clots and a stroke. So they cut my work hours from 12 hour shifts at the time to 4 hours a day. And you know the hospital didn't except my doctor's paperwork. So I had to stop working. Cause the flare ups and sometimes I can't wear shoes. And the want me to keep them elevated. A vascular doctor said get them wrap 3-4 days a week. Insurance said I had to pay out of pocket. Plus no one in our area. When I found one it's $200 that's the first visit. So know one will help unless it is like you see some people with the huge legs. That stay that way. But they said get surgery when they do t know the issue. One says poor circulation on the blood return. Even with all my doctor's paperwork they find I dressed to nice. So I give up

Interesting. I did watch one of your videos on wrapping for leg inflammation and fibrosis. I am in the early stages and haven't had much swelling after getting fitted with compression shorts but I do feel I have some fibrosis above the knee so I took it on myself to get some of the wraps for this. I don't know if it's coincidental but after using the padding twice just above the knee, I'm starting to have some flare up. I stopped the wrapping and had a day or two without the shorts until the redness went away. Maybe I did something wrong. I continue the exercise and the massages.

Hello, you mentioned you could possibly help to find a certified lymphatic drainage specialist. I live in Southern California Los Angeles in a town called San Pedro. Thank you.

@ Mark Rosemary-lymphadema is not curable, only manageable. If that person you recommended states he cures lymphadema, he is full incorrect information. 💩

@julialeite63 No. Fiance mom passed she left us this house. Just kinda getting settled in. I always wanted to move from Florida. I did once. But came back after my miscarriages. Needed to come back home. Some times I regret it though as far as family wise.

We have to recognize and know that diet nutrition play a big part of this I'm not going to go to against anybody else with a therapy or pharmaceuticals or anything but you have to realize you have to take responsibility of your diet nutrition eating certain foods is better for you than other foods bad foods would be bred donuts candy soda anything with a lot of sugar or starch or bread is bad it's not that it's poison but if you have a condition or you're overweight then you have to change your diet

Yes. I went on the Lion Diet which is a complete elimination diet except beef, lamb, bison and salt and water. Had a huge improvement!! Very discouraged now though as all reintroductions of food are causing issues. I can't see eating only meat forever.

Also according to diet nutrition I like to think about snacking is very bad for your health even if you would eat good food snacking with wouldn't be good so therefore you have to do some fasting like eating once every 24 hours or once every 10 hours something you have to realize that you're body needs to digest the food and then it needs to use the sugar and glucose that the body storage.
