I didn't have low BP and I finally started adding weight about 16 months post Tx and I'm holding my pre Tx weight right now which is a good thing because I really couldn't afford to loose any before my Tx started. Looking back I am surprised that Moffitt didn't DEMAND I get a Peg as they basically left it up to me with my promise that I would not loose any weight. Little did I know that was a nearly impossible promise to make.
