On March 6, 2019, the Alberta Lymphedema Association presented a check for more than $29,000 to the Calgary Health Trust to help ensure patients who use Calgary Ambulatory Lymphedema Services (CALS) will have access to care that will improve their quality of life.
COME IN AND LEARN MOREWhat is lymphedema? It is a disease that affects your lymphatic system.
The job of your body’s lymphatic system is to help your tissues drain excess fluid and stay healthy.
When the lymphatic system is faulty or damaged, fluid buildup can cause swelling that could be the early signs of lymphedema.
