: hi i've had lymphodema since I was 10 years old. i'm 35 now, and it has gotten bigger, and very painful at times. my lymphodema is on my left leg. it started with ankle swelling, and it rose up, through my leg. i feel very self conscious. i don't like wearing skirts no more, because i feel people stare and stare, thus making me feel very uncomfortable. i've been to many doctors, and they all tell me the same thing, wear compression stockings, use the compression pump. i do all that, but i really don't see any change. it is really hard to cope with this, especially when i'm so young. i didn't know there were many people with living with this. i thought i was all alone. If you want to talk, please email me,
