Hi Don  :wavey:  Thered hot bath when I got home pretty much put everything right with the world  :D

I actually took a ride to Tractor Supply today & found a really comfy pair of neoprene boots, that happen to fit perfectly. They're not very well insulated, but they were on special at $6.99, so I can't complain! They'll certainly do until it gets below freezing.

I'll have to check with The Boss as Mondays are real busy over here. I probably shouldn't count on it though  :(
I will be there on Saturday PM  :)

Neoprene wont hold up if you rabbit hunt through the briars. 1 trip and they went in the trash. If your not going near the thicket then Mucks will be great. I personally like the Lacrosse alpha burllies.

Muck boots. Haven't hunted in anything else in 3 years. Fieldmasters for warmer weather. Woody Max for cold weather. Best boots I've owned. Ever !

Watch the neoprene.  It is very comfy but snags easily and holds lots of odor.  It is a very absorbant material.

Muck makes a rubber coated boot. When I tried them they didnt offer them, they were just neoprene outer. Im sure with the rubber coating they have improved the toughness and wear. I would avoid any outdoor boot that is going to be exposed to the underbrush/briars, that has neoprene on the outside. Around here, the briars will make a pair of coveralls look like a ghillie suit after 1 rabbit season!

Have you been treated by a trained therapist for your lymphedema sx, or used a compression pump?

Lymphedema management is one of my specialties.  I'd love to treat you myself, but driving from TN to KS 3-5 times a week might be costly!  

Aside from therapy, I'd recommend a Flexitouch pump by Tactile Systems.  Some of my patients have had good luck with it and they are great people to work with.  

Feel free to send me a pm and I'll hook you up with my contact info in case you have questions.
