Thank you for your responses Neil and Dan,

I have been denied the request to swim and how to go about doing that, and quite vehemently so that's that!
I wasn't very happy that it's so cut and dried with all the waterproof solutions to tops and even dry suits, but life is more important than an extended dip in the pool I'd say.

My nutritional supplements keep my protein around 140g plus, my calories around 3000/day and my weight getting a bit more solid at 195lbs. Also experienced slight boost in hG with new cells.

Downside is strong group 2 GVHD on a 10/10 matched unrelated donor, so new meds and some fever and fatigue.
Contracted cytomegalovirus and was treated for that, causing more fatigue and discomfort. Made for a couple weeks of hot August summer weather here in BC a little more uncomfortable and bed ridden here and there, and lots of added appointments an hour drive each way!

Again, thanks Neil and Dan for your replies and information, I hope the best for everyone, talk again!

Cheers
