Has anyone encountered swelling in the injured arm? my daughter is 3 with 2 surgeries. My peds doc called and talked with lisa and she said she would talk with dr. shenaq but no response yet. I thought i had come acrossed Francine mentioning at one point that her daughter had some edema? anyone?

My daughter has edema too (like Maia). Elizabeth has had 2 surgeries (primary and a secondary involving neurolosis but no mod quad). Her arm has always been "swollen." It has always been plump...not atrophied...but it doesn't have the tone of the unaffected arm.
