My story is a long one but I’ll try to keep it concise. I’m recovering from brain cancer. After my radiation my brain formed a cyst near the site of the cancer which started filling up regularly with fluid. I believe it is lymph fluid because I also had 2 abdominal (peritoneal lining) surgeries in my 20’s to drain what appeared to be lymph fluid and there’s other evidence that I have some problems with lymph & blood flow. I had surgery to install a reservoir device that can be accessed from my skull that was drained once a week. We were getting .75 milliliters every week, the capacity of the reservoir. Within 3 days of wearing my L’Original leggings, the fluid was reduced to .5 milliliters! That trend continued for more than a month so we tried a week and a half and still got only .5. So now we’re draining it every 2 weeks. These pants work!! Along with the drainage issue, my legs are looking better- thinner and smoother. I’ll probably order one of the tops soon. I’m truly thankful for these products!
