@2onlow8- Good morning and welcome to Connect. Your question is excellent and opens up an entire group of questions that deal with how much you want to be exposed to the world, what chances are you taking, what chances are you willing to take. When I had chemo back in 2007-2008 (I think) i pretty much isolated myself. My chemo was cisplatin and navelbine. Cisplatin is very very tough stuff and really did me in, especially my stomach. There wasn't such a push to exercise back then as there is now. I finished my chemo in October- actually it was on my birthday, lol. The fatigue that I felt was enormous and it took me a while to get going-
I rarely shopped- I turned that over to my husband and if anyone had a cold I stayed home, even from family events. I do have a tendency to over protect myself but I felt that I was very susceptible to anything that would challenge my immune system. I was afraid of being ill again. Maybe too afraid.
If you don't have a needle in your port you can swim because the skin over it will protect it. But it's always smart to check with your doctor. I think that if there is no medical reason to avoid a pool and you are feeling extremely healthy than the thing to do would be to check with the Y manager and find out how clean the pool is. I haven't heard of any infections in any Y. They get many cancer people, all wanting to get healthy.
Are you exercising yet? How long ago were your treatments?
