Re: Chlorine

Thanks for the link. Very interesting. I know of several children with asthma who use indoor pools regularly. A swimming teacher told me that she teaches a young boy who is a very keen swimmer and has asthma. His sister died of asthma.

I am trying to find out if my problems are caused by pool chemicals. I have greatly cut down on pool use, but I will continue doing everything else the same, including dry statics and land-based fitness training, so any change will only be caused by the decrease in pool use. Today I feel much better than I did a few days ago. If there is a long-term improvement I will post the results.

Some good news - in September I am going to be living near a pool which uses ozone to clean the water, so I'll give that a try.
