Fear of lymphoedema

Life after a breast cancer diagnosis Coping with fear and anxiety

5 weeks ago I had a lumpectomy and had 3 lymph nodes removed. Since having the operation I am cautious about being bitten or scratched on my left arm or hand.  As a bit of protection I wanted to share with you that I have found some insect repellent clothing in the Rohan shop. Plus I use Deet as my new perfume. ?

Hi HelenMae - I hope are recovering well from your operation, sending you my best wishes. Thanks so much for posting about the insect repellent clothing, I’d never heard of that. I too am nervous about getting bitten so will definitely check it out.
