Hi
I have been a diabetic for 22 years and just found this website about 3months ago. This is a great website for diabetics.

try going to a senior center in your area they should be able to show you in the right direction or possibly even help you fill out any necessary paperwork to get on a medical assistance program like medicaid or somthing of the sort! good luck

That is the organization that Montel has been supporting and is currently touring the country to spread the word.

Ummm also medicaid (? sorry I am Canadian and I get your different state run insurance things all confused) advertises a lot that they will pay for some of your diabetes meds.

Best of luck.

Why do you feel that others should be obligated to pay for your medications? No one owes you anything . . stop looking for handouts! Eat less, exercise more, and you probably won't need the meds anyway.
