21. GREATER BOSTON LYMPHEDEMA NETWORK Supplies personal support and information to lymphedema patients. Includes a list of treatment options and lymphedemarelated links. http://www.kynosoura.com/lsg/

GREATER BOSTON LYMPHEDEMA NETWORK (formerly the Lymphedema Support Group of the Greater Boston Area) The Greater Boston Lymphedema Network (formerly the Lymphedema Support Group of the Greater Boston Area) has held meetings since January 1995. It was founded and organized by Marianne Lynnworth, Dr.rer.nat., who has primary lymphedema and lipedema. In May 1998 a Board of Directors was established to facilitate the growing needs of the organization. Meetings are held at the Lahey Clinic in Burlington, MA. Generally we meet on the third Wednesday of each month, at 7:00 pm , skipping July, August and December. For speakers, we invite doctors or other professionals with training relevant to lymphedema. In the past, we have covered: Manual Lymph Drainage, Exercises, Myofascial Release, Complete Decongestive Therapy, Skin care, Fitting of Compression garments, Nutrition, Lymphedema review, Bandaging, Manual Self-Care and Coverage by Insurances and HMOs. The original purpose of the group has been to supply some personal support and information to lymphedema patients. The complaint most frequently heard from new members is the lack of understanding and empathy by members of the medical profession. We have created a network of lymphedema friends who try to help each other by sharing information and maintenance advice. Members who have already lived with lymphedema for many years can calm down the fears of other members who are newly confronted with this affliction.

The ONLY comprehensive book about LYMPHEDEMA It's Symptoms, Diagnosis, Treatment, and possible Prevention - for lymphedema patients and their doctors by Joan Swirsky, RN and Diane Sackett Nannery "Coping with Lymphedema is a valuable resource for those who are suffering from lymphedema, and its underlying message is very powerful: arm yourself with knowledge and become an advocate for your own quality care. This book is a highly recommended resource and has received an outstanding rating from the OncoLink editorial team." Lora Miringoff, MS, PT, University of Pennsylvania Hospital Occupational & Physical Therapy Department for OncoLink - Book Reviews "Finally, a book on lymphedema – a subject that far too many breast cancer patients hear little or nothing about in those critical days just after being diagnosed and before surgery. Lymphedema is an ailment over which we do have some control. With education and effort, we can save thousands of women who have survived surgery, radiaion, and chemotherapy, the heartbreak of coping with this debilitating condition. Coping with Lymphedema offers much needed information and furthers this effort." From the book review by Josephine Miller for Breast Cancer Action of San Francisco. "I was advised to read "Coping with Lymphedema" – it’s excellent, very clearly and simply presented. I must have turned down the corners of about 50 different pages that I want to refer back to a lot!" M. Hall, Brooksville, FL

Home Page Therapy Results Breast Cancer ... Contact Us Lymphedema Therapy uses the Casley-Smith method of CLT/CDT and has helped over 1200 individuals reduce and control their lymphedema. The Disease Lymphedema is the swelling of soft tissues as a result of the accumulation of protein rich fluid in the extra cellular spaces. It occurs most frequently in an extremity but can be seen in the head, neck, abdomen, and genitalia. Types of Lymphedema There are two types of lymphedema. Primary lymphedema occurs without any known precipitating cause, and is due to inadequate or non-functional lymphatic vessels. Primary lymphedema present at birth is called congenital lymphedema. Lymphedema praecox evolves in adolescence or mid-life. Lymphedema tarda evolves late in life. Secondary lymphedema is precipitated by an event causing blockage or interruption of the lymphatic vessels. In the United States the most common causes are surgery involving the lymph nodes, radiation therapy, trauma, and cancer. It is most often seen following surgery for cancer of the breast, pelvic area, and resections for lymphomas and melanomas. Symptoms of Lymphedema As lymphedema progresses, the involved areas swell more and more. Mobility can be severely impaired as the affected areas increase in girth. Joint movement is restricted and painful, and the skin over the involved areas becomes taut and dry. The subcutaneous tissues can become hard and fibrotic which impairs the flow of blood and oxygen to the area. This unhealthy state often leads to recurrent infections because the high protein lymph fluid is a good growth media for bacteria and fungi. These infections can be life threatening and may require hospitalization for intravenous antibiotic therapy. Each subsequent infection can further damage the already impaired lymphatic system.
