I have had two node biospies and, I believe, only had 4 nodes total taken.  I am getting ready to fly for the first time since the last biopsy and am concerned about LE.  Can anyone tell me if only having this few nodes taken still makes me a candidate for getting LE?  Should I do something special when I fly?  

I have not ever had any LE symptoms in the 5 years of dealing with BC and recurrence.  Please advise.  Thanks!

    I had 7 nodes taken and have LE, so yeah, even just one (or none if you had rads) can still leave you open to LE.  I'm sure one of the ladies who've been dealing with this longer will be along soon to give you some tips.
