Can lymphedema be cured?
No, at the present time there is no cure for lymphedema. But it can be treated and managed and most of the complications can be avoided. Life with lymphedema can still be active and full, with proper treatment, patient education, and patient life style adaptation.

It seems that Escherichia coli, the bacteria responsible for causing diarrhea, can actually prevent colon cancer cells from multiplying.
I’ve also heard enough success stories to know: no matter how hopeless the situation may seem, it is always possible for a person on his/her own to reverse it and regain health.
I want to give you just one example
to prove my point. I want everyone who reads this article to meet D.J. Geisler
– an amazing and beautiful woman from California, who healed from four cancers
(the last one – a fourth stage bone cancer), survived 37 surgeries - and who is
now 4 years cancer-free and full of life, still running her day care and
helping other ‘cancering’ people find their way back to health. She described
her personal journey in a book ‘Let’s Put an End to Cancer’, which is also
featured on her website www.letsputanendtocancer.com.
Please, take a moment to get to know her – after this acquaintance you may
start seeing your own problems differently. You may also start seeing your
future differently.
