my mother's feet continue to swell and pain her. Today I took her to the emergency room. Before I went I did some research and found out that she could possibly have lymphedema since the swelling continues even after antibiotics. I was disappointed with the emergency room doctors, they simply looked at her foot and said that it didn't look infected ( like last week). They told her to take motrin for the pain and keep a watch on it, if it gets worse to come back. No test were given not even blood work. I realize that its no cure for lymphedema however couldn't they at least take some type of test to let me know at least what stage it's in? Getting answers for pancreatic cancer seems so difficult. Any suggestions on what I can do to help her
