I had the pleasure of speaking with Peggy of Portraits by Peggy, one of the best lymphedema video producers (in my opinion) on YouTube. Peggy is a photographer and helps models, actors and entrepreneurs in San Diego and Los Angeles. She also has lower extremity lymphedema in her leg which was NOT caused by primary lymphedema or removing lymph nodes or radiation after a cancer diagnosis.
This is one of the reasons I think her videos are the best on YouTube - they are hopefully increasing awareness that sometimes lymphedema can happen without cancer treatment or genetics to blame. It took Peggy YEARS to get a proper diagnosis.

on Lymphedema: Cancer Treatment's Dirty Little Secret
by Kathleen Lisson
I was honored to be a guest on a podcast focused on women with a breast cancer history. I shared information on lymphedema, including, risks, what you can do before surgery, how to reduce the likelihood you will get lymphedema, how to seek treatment and some fun ways to treat lymphedema.
In this podcast, I talk about needing to gather resources BEFORE you need them. I learned this the hard way when I moved across San Diego and 'lost' all the nearby resources I had come to depend upon. My tip - find new support before you need it!
