Bruising a lot better. Swelling bad. It's hard to follow the 16 oz of water a day and very low sodium diet. Have had two lympotic massages they really help

That's not bad. Just try to get a 500ml glass and drink it all at once several times a day. I also noticed that I also drink more water when it's at room temperature so that may help. By the way where did you get the lymphatic massages at and how much was it?
