back to life-- scuba anyone?

backtohealth

Hi All,

I was diagnosed with stage 2b breast cancer last august. Like in a roller coaster I had mastectomy with lymphonode dissection, chemio, doctor visits, reconstruction and since February 14 I am on Tamoxifen and trying to go back to normal life w/o focusing on the possibility of a relapse.

I am back to work and to the gym and I would like to go back scuba diving but I am afraid that this may cause lymphedema. There are no published scientific data, so I am wondering if anybody has done it without sequelae. I know this is something small that I could avoid but is something that I love to do and it would be great if I knew I can go back w/o risks…. any experience to share?
