All is well here,
I just need to wait to see what folks will help me do.
I have several persons working in my favor.

>> OK that is good to know.
>> I didn't know they were out there.
>> When I first came to Montana from Colorado, I was having problems
>> understanding all what I needed to do.
>> My medical doctor said he couldn't help me any more.
>> I asked Jim my husband to send me back to Denver, because I felt I was
>> treated better than here in Montana.
>> My doctor was shocked I would put in a request like that.
>> So he decided to help me out, because he also is a diabetic.
>> Brakeing down communication I was able to understand what he was
>> asking me to do.
>> As you know I need simple to understand what is happening.
>> Then when I get it I can run like the rest of you do.
>> I also have learned lots from this list.
>> Thanks for sharing.

>>> I started speaking with one of the ladies who works with humana.
>>> She says humana pays 80 to 20 my co payment.
>>> Ok she didn't know how to figure it out.
>>> We tried on our own, learning we would pay $60.
>>> I called the nurse who shared I needed to speak to the diabetic
>> coordinator.
>>> I did who said I need to speak to a diabetic doctor.
>>> Ok fine, where my doctor will not be in office in the month of March.
>>> He is a diabetic, guess that isn't the same thing.
>>> Now I wait to see who comes back to me.
>>> Just some thoughts.
