!@#$%^&*()_++_)(*&^%$#@! SLEEVE

my custom made sleeve has arrived and with it a new set of challenges and untold stress. it's uncomfortable, hot , clumsy, heavy, in the way and something i may have to contend with forever....
hopefully if i wear it the prescribed 23 0f 24 hours daily for a while the swelling may get under control and then the lightweight spandex type sleeve and glove will suffice during the day and this monstrosity will only be necessary at night.....
if i don't wear this, the lymphedema could get much worse and some people even lose the use of the affected limb.... i can't afford that !!!!! so am trying my damndest to get used to this.....
"they" say "why me" isn't a good question to ask but at the moment it's the one i'm asking .....
the use of this arm is quite limited with the sleeve on..... i do take it off to eat - otherwise i would have food all over it..... it is washable but don't want to wear it out before its time......
i don't have the bill yet but am hoping my secondary insurance will pick up part of the $450 !!!!!!! since medicare doesn't think this a cancer treatment !! and won't pay for any of it.....
