[Diabetes-talk] Insurance... Here we go again!!!

[catdancing]

i used to get insurance from my now x husbands company the diabetes 
supplies, tests etc were not covered for the first year.After the divorce i 
was unable to get insurance until i found a job that gave insurance to it's 
employees. the cost of my (at the time) car insurance was so high because of 
diabetes i finally quit telling them i was diabetic i used to move from one 
state to another sorta frequently.
