Default repotting shock

I purchased a beautiful Brazilian flame vine late this summer (Pyrostegia
venusta), transplanted to a big pot and was wondering if the plant was dying
when the leaves started to fall (droopy leaves).
I watered every 2 or 3 days, no more.
I went back to the person who sold me and she said almost every plant
suffers from repotting shock after being repotted.
The plant was beautiful and healthy when I bought and I did not do anything
other then what was recommended (repotting and water every 2/3 days).
I wonder if this really happens and the person did tell me the truth.

Thanks ccap

fwiw
I use B-1 any time I repot or plant anything. Seems to reduce and even
eliminate shock greatly. YMMV
