Lymphatic Disorders Information Day

Have you had cancer treatment? Or always had swollen ankles that you can't seem to control? Chronic leg ulcers? All the women in your family have "fat legs"?

Has your doctor given up trying to help or just given you diuretics and send you on your way?

These are all possible signs of lymphatic disorders such as lymphoedema, phlebolymphoedema and lipoedema.

So what are these conditions? At their most basic, you may know them as fluid retention or swelling, but there's a lot more to them and there's a lot to be learnt about how to live a better life with these conditions.

We will be having speakers to talk about these conditions and how they are diagnosed, how we can work together to manage them, and give you a better quality of life. You'll also have the chance to meet with suppliers of therapeutic products, therapists, and cancer support providers.
