EPO increase weight ?
Hi all,
My mom has EPO injection for around 3 weeks now, she has put on weight for around 1.5kg, just wondering is the weight increase caused by EPO and whether this is normal ?
FYI, my mom has ferriprox around 2 months, I don't know whether ferriprox is the reason behind of the weight increase or not. If anyone have any thoughts/comments of this, please share with me. Thanks in advance.
