Hi everyone,
I'm a kidney transplant patient for about 7 months now. I am generally an ectomorph and my nephrologist is puzzled why I'm still not gaining any fat even though I'm on steroids.
In my whole 29 years, I've been physically thin. Now I aim to put on some weight and muscles by working out. I've done this before, before I was diagnosed having a kidney failure and it worked out for me even though just a little.
But the problem is I have a fistula in my left arm and I'm concerned that if I lift some weights, it might get damaged or something. Is there something I can do about this or any other alternatives? Thanks.
