So I was diagnosed in 2013 with lymphedema.I was never put on medication the only thing I was told was to wear compression socks & comfortable shoes. I have pretty much had a handle on it but this last flare up has lasted a week now & I can't wear anything but slides, I start my new job next week & can't even get my left foot into a real shoe. Someone plz give me some advice.

my lymphedema is in my legs. left leg is the worse. I can control the swelling to a minimum but not the pain. I have days where my legs feel so heavy, weak and hard to walk. at times my knees bother me too. Is this normal?
