I was once again thinking about trying the Caresia Arm since the Caresia Glove has worked very well for me and so spent some time looking at different web sites for more information regarding use, price, etc.  What I noticed was a difference in sizing between Solarismed.com and online suppliers of this garment.  Back to Solarismed.com, I found a Blog area and an article dated April 16, 2010  "We have updated the alloted girth sizes for a few of our Caresia product lines.  These changes have been made in our new pricing and product catalogs but just a heads up if you have not seen them yet!"  Evidently the online suppliers were not all aware of this change and still had the old sizing charts which are quite a bit different in bicep girth.  I've spoken with or emailed 2 of these suppliers who stated they would update their information to match Solaris, but wanted to make this known to anyone who will soon be purchasing a Caresia Arm. 

Other Solaris items that I've ordered online have been shipped directly from Solaris, but still wanting to make sure there are not 2 different versions/sizes still available when I order, I've left a message with the design department at Solaris and will let you know if I find anything else on this.  It puzzles me that the bicep measurement could go from "up to 30 cm" to "25-45 cm" (an increase of almost 6 inches) without changing the garment unless it wasn't properly sized to begin with?
