I got lightheaded and dizzy a lot in the late and early post Tx phase. There were several times that I collapsed when getting out of bed or just standing up after sitting. I got down to 109 lbs. and was pretty beat which is typical of this harsh a treatment. It eventually passed and I put half of the weight back on.
