@johnbishop You had mentioned that which is why I commented on the one I have. I really do find it helpful to find that I am retaining fluid. When I was in the last few weeks before my transplant my fluid retention was incredible. As I said, it balances that with BMI for some reason and my BMI was at around 12! I gained about 35 pounds of fluid in a few weeks. When I gain fluid it takes a while for it to all drain, as in sometimes as long as two weeks. The last time we were in Italy, when I was sick but didn't know what was wrong yet, my feet ballooned up to HUGE. I had to buy some cheap sandals that fastened with velcro, nothing else fit on my feet. That was when it took weeks to get back to normal. Of course that I was retaining fluid was obvious.
