Big class at RSB this morning--20+ people putting on the gloves. Morning goes by quickly with a big group--coach keeps us moving. Today we had three stations--where each group of about 7 people went to each of the stations for about 10 minutes. We began with a warm up activity--did the 3 stations, did a round of  Rolling Thunder, and ended with a cool down activity. Makes for a busy 1.5 hours--and 90 minutes of movement and aerobic exercise.

I came away feeling a little blitzed--I feel really tired by the time we complete a class. I stopped on the way home and got a green tea latte (with eggnog) which helped me pick up some.

Got a reminder call from the bone marrow nurse--she went over the checkpoints for tomorrow's biopsy. Turns out I don't have to fast--since I'm getting the biopsy without a general anesthesia. I'll be curious to see if I can just go to RSB class afterward--the procedure is scheduled for 7 am (!) and shouldn't take over an hour.

I went onto the pharmacy's website and dumped my prescription records--which worked out well. I was able to dump the records--and then edit the original into a single page with details of all the medications I am consuming. Saves a lot of time hand writing that info into every location's in-take form--and with PD my handwriting is not all that legible.

In putting together the medication list--I got a piece of data from a summary of the costs involved. According to the records--the insurance plan helped save me over $10,000 in medication costs. Says something about what the medication businesses are gouging for their products--thank goodness for insurance.

Onward and onward--and to getting a hole in my butt in the morning.
