Yes, After having Right Ovarian Cancer They performed a Right Salipingooorectomy while I was pregnant in 1992. Then in 2013 I was told that my Cancer had metastized and needed a Radical Hysterectomy and R emoval of my lymphnodes. Now, I have developed Lymphedema two years after my last Cancer, my Oncologist found it alarming. I started Therapy and found that I could perform the same treatment myself. I first started by having three ablation procedures from my Cardiologist. The left leg only needed one vein to do and seven on the right. I returned for the normal ultrasound to see if it worked and it had not. They, then performed the same ablation on the right again. Prior, I had no problems with excessive swelling what so ever. I had a Mitral and Atrial Valve Reguritation since birth and was an aerobics instructure, with no problems. Then, I was told after testing that I had Ventricular Regurgitation, but my Aorta was fine. I do have Atrial Enlargement. I use a deep tissue device three times a day, self message, elevate my legs above my heart, wear compression wear first I USED20-30MMGH, know I wear 30-40.
