Chlorine gives me headcolds (slightly allergic) ; but i heard swimming and water walking is really good for p.o.ts patients... good outweigh the bad ?

Great q. I houestion: It's hard to say. It's true that swimming and water walking are great but if you're allergic, that's a problem. Talk to your doctor and see if medication will help i hope yes and am very proud you wnt to exercise. If you can't swim, walk. All the best.
