Letter to the editor: Support action on lymphedema treatment

Tribune-Review
Tribune-Review

I am a cancer survivor who also has lymphedema, which is painful, debilitating and incurable but is treatable with compression garments and a systemic massage/pumping system that assists in removing the excess fluids from affected tissue. Medicare and many insurances currently do not cover these treatments, and many lymphedema patients are suffering unnecessarily.

Please contact your representatives and senators to support and vote for passage of the Lymphedema Treatment Act.

Nancy E. Spohn
