[QUOTE="himtoo, post: 2541905, member: 142835"] I have a lot of sympathy for your feelings on this subject, as it is not fair that a medical condition that you did not ask for has to be paid for by you. but ultimately if you choose not to monitor your blood sugar levels and take steps to lower them it will be your health that will suffer in coming years. it will not happen in just a few months but over time the complications of diabetes including potential heart attacks or strokes or neuropathy leading to possible amputations, or loss of kidney function possibly leading to dialysis, and also sight loss due to diabetic retinopathy are the main features of uncontrolled blood sugars. i guess you need to ask yourself if your health is worth your stand against an unfair system.
