@feruj - definitely check with your transplant team. In some states and hospitals it could kick you off the transplant list if you use marijuana. I never risked it. Post LT I did use CBD/THC gummies. I was nauseous, so thin, and couldn’t eat. My transplant surgeon okayed me using the gummies to try to gain weight. I only used them for a month and it helped me get back on track. Just be honest about it with your team because they will test for substances at least monthly pre-transplant. I had mine done at UC Health in Denver.

What I know you can’t test positive for any type of drugs or you will not be put on transplant list
