Diabetes is not real. You don't need to take medication. Nothing will happen to you.
I've been an insulin-dependent Diabetic for 26 years, I have never had to pay for medication of any kind since my Pancreas failed at 18, all prescription medication is free. The dude who said Diabetes isn't real, if his pancreas every fails, he will change his tune rapid. Report It

    • Hmmm.... They would die.. But in canada, you get medication for free ( NO COST )! :P
    I'd imagine state/federal aid would be the only option if the person is uninsured.
    You could try Partnership Presciption assoc. PPA.ORG this site helps people who can't afford medicine.
    Go to the Red Cross and tell them why you have no meds and what you need and they can help you get some.
    Pancreas stops secreting insulin gradually and if further insulin from outside source is not available-- blood glucose may rise to a very high level-- may go into keto-acidotic coma. Further problems like septicemia , electrolyte imbalance, ----may ensue.
    Medicines in diabetes just increase insulin secretion by stimulating beta cells of pancreas . Insulin can be started as first line of treatment in a educated , aware patient.
    allopathy has no cure for diabetis. but homeopathy does. and its safer and comparatively cheaper. also there are many homeopathics who give free treatment for needy people. so if u r one of them... go ahead.
    God alone can save him!
    They should apply for medicaid, because they need their medication.
