    This is melifair (the original poster) again- just to say that actually the pool is now hardly at all cloudy - i would say it is 95% clear. Just in case it makes a difference to any answers about whether i can swim in the next few hours....

    Yes, you can swim. The cloudiness is just calcium carbonate that has precipitated out. You might want to recheck your calcium levels once the pool clears since you might have lost some of the calcium you put in.
