    Hi Stefany, you should check in with your team or your doctor about that. I think if you are intentially loosing weight due to working out/diet changes then that is probably okay. But rapid, unintentional weightloss over a short period of time might reflect some underlying health issue. Sometimes your weight can affect medication doses and how your body is absorbing those transplant medication so definitely give your doctor a call.

    I am losing weight too, about 40 pounds over the past 3 years. 10 pounds in the last 2 months. I had Liver cancer and the cancer is back. This is the second time in two years. I start radiation treatments in two weeks.

    Please see your doctor.
