Hi Jan, thanks for the response below--for me they have me in a tank top style undershirt, LE therapy for two days a wk, have sent me for pain management to a complimentary med. Dr. who uses magnets and electricity to break up "stuff" and get things moving in the body (I never went for this before, didn't believe in it, but all pain meds. are out so this is all that is left for me)--he also uses an IR lamp to break up "stuff" and get the fluid flowing, and now several Dr.'s are ganging up on me to do water therapy to get better compression since I don't fit a compression bra and tubi-grip is too big to stay up on me--of course now I have to get a bathing suit that works--ho hum--at least I have time as the insurance is giving us a hassle :-}
