Beats not having a pump at all, I guess. Not sure just how organized the Infusion Office really is. The injected drug has changed, now that I have the pump, with no adverse effects so far. I had to stay at the office for a while, at the start of injection, to be sure I did not react to it, but all's well so far. The nurse did say that this could produce some nauseu, and/or tiredness, so now if I feel like having a nap, I have an excuse! Not all bad.
Another crazy day on Wall Street. I hope someone out there understands what is happening. Not able to control it, but some understanding would be nice. I don't have any major investments to lose sleep over, so I am certainly not looking for any ledge to jump from, but between the election coming, and the market doing cartwheels, it certainly keeps the country in an uproar. The debate last night, (the final one, Thank God,) did not settle much either, other than bring sudden fame to 'Joe the plumber.' Guess he gets 15 minutes in the spotlight, to share with the candidates.
We went to a BCBS insurance seminar this morning before I got my pump. Not a lot of information, other than the fact that our co-pays will be going up in 2009. They had dropped any co-pay at the primary doctor, in 2008, but it is coming back for 2009. Just $15 a visit, which is liveable. Specialist visits, however, which had been $15 this past year, will be going to $35 a visit, so my eye checks will be a bit more. Normally, our Dr visits are not nearly as frequent as some of our friends, except the last few weeks have seemed like doing little else. Maybe getting past this kidney stone/infection thing will let us get back to normal, whatever that might be. Life goes on, at least for now. Won't make any promises about after Nov 4th, or at least Jan 20th!! Maybe there will be some MAJOR changes for some of us after that. I am ready, hope you are too.
