My mother has been treated with 2x of chemo for IBC Inflammatory Breast Cancer, She has had no Breast or lymph node removal.
She appears to be having lymphadema -- her arm swells and under her arm. They have tried massage and wrapping goes down but comes back.
They want to do Chemo or Radiation but her CA level is at acceptable range, so I feel chemo is inappropriate. Is there anyone else out there that has been going through this and what are you doing.
