Lymphedema Board: Swollen fingers and hand

Swollen fingers and hand

My fingers and hand have been swollen for about a couple of months now started out hardly noticeable but now getting a little more. Seems like my arm from wrist to elbow is slightly swollen. I had a mastectomy in Sept. 09 with removal of lymph nodes. Could this be the start of lymphydema? I have an appointment in a couple of weeks with my surgeon and thought I should just wait until I see him. Any suggestions here would be helpful. Thanks
