I am 20 y/o and on my parents insurance right now. I have type 2 diabetes. I am getting married here soon with my pregnant g/f, my job doesn't offer good enough health care. Right now I am taking 1,000mg of Metformin in the morning and again in the evening. I know I won't be able to afford $40 extra /month, what would a good regimen be for a sufficient replacement? Any advice is appreciated, ty

I know for a fact that Wal-Mart has Metformin (or the generic version) as one of their $4 prescriptions. No matter what you have to give up, don't go off your meds. Even the most expensive pills cost less than going into the hospital in a diabetic coma.

Forget anything you have ever been told about Diabetes.
And get this - it has NOTHING to do with insulin, exercise, diet or anything else you've heard in the past.
It's all based on latest breakthrough research that Big Pharma is going Stir Crazy to hide from you.

It would not be wise to cut your Medication.
Diabetes is a serious disease.
But with proper treatment you can lead a realitively normal life.Talk to your Doctor before cutting any Medication.
You might talk to your pharmacy some of the drug companies have programs to help people who can't afford their medication.

You might qualify for the Wal-Mart $4/prescription plan. Give them a call and find out.
