seems many surgeons are concerned only w/ scarring & the post op recovery and don't actually pay attention when we ask about other issues...

Often we do get swollen lymph nodes even with no surgery - part of the clogged up system we tend to have...
less movement = clogged up lymph (my opinion anyway)
Thanks Jo*mar.
Unfortunately thats so true about the aftercare!
I'm not quite sure what to do about my doctor as he was the one who was blaise when I tried to let him know of my symptoms involved with TOS. I'm having a follow up with my surgeon on the 20th Oct.... hopefully I will get better treatment there???
Many thanks for the lymph links. SD38

I've edited this post to add a youtube video which may help others having problems with their lymph nodes ( supraclavicular region) post surgery.
It's very gentle so you should be able to manage quite soon after if you have an op.

Hope it helps others. Best wishes. SD38
