Lymphedema Survey

Good Morning Everyone

We are cooperating with a number of groups and are trying to conduct a web wide patient lymphedema survey.We are looking for some information from all of you concerning your lymphedema. Please help us by filling out this poll.

We need to know: gender, age, when diagnosed, how treated, primary or secondary, how you acquired it, and upper or lower. LOL - I understand how people feel about polls, but this is important and could help a great deal in understanding the needs of our members and LE patients.

Please take a moment to cut and paste this into an email and send

to: advocatesforlymphedema@gmail.com

This is for members and visitors alike - the only requirement is that you have lymphedema

Thanks a million!!!!!!! Pat
