never had them, although I had to give them to my husband after his transplant ... a longer story. Still annoyed that we ultimately threw away about 8K worth of Neupogen mainly because of insurance BS ... another story.
My sister-in-law was my husband's donor so she had the shots for a few days before donating. She had to have a central line to donate because of her veins and had two sessions.
Just keep up your strength as best you can, put on some weight 
but check with the doc on swimming. My husband's doc did not want him swimming for the month between his induction chemo and the transplant, she was afraid he could get an infection that might delay the transplant. If nothing else, keep your head out of the water but do check.
I hope that you are admitted soon, sometimes you just want to move along!
My husband is doing well thank you, October will be four years, but there were some challenges.
Feel free to ask me any questions. Remember to walk, eat, drink as much as you can ... even when you do not feel like it!
P.S. See about setting up a caringbridge or carepage site, but let someone else be in charge of the updates. You can just read the messages of support.
