I enjoy going to the pool and meeting up with pool buddies. I also use a neck fan and I'm not good at drinking, especially plain water, so I drink peach flavored Hint water, it helps and occasionally use iv electrolyte powder. I have a countertop ice machine that I put my Hint water in it and eat ice all day, it makes soft ice and is better than just drinking plain water.

Limit time in the heat. Listen to your body. Heat does affect lymphoma patients. Keep hydrated and keep cold drinks in the fridge. We drink flavored waters because they give a taste to the water and I drink more. Limit sugar and be sure to eat something salty yo keep your electrolytes balanced. I put lemons and limes in my flavored waters and keep it close to me outside.
