Humulin R U-500 (Concentrated) for Diabetes, Type 1 User Reviews

"My diabetes has never been in such good control ever since I started using Humulin R U-500 insulin. I recently got an insulin pump, and this is the insulin that was used. The insurance I have now will not cover any insulin, so I had to stop taking Humulin R U-500 due to the fact I cannot afford the out-of-pocket costs. I am a hard-working woman with a good job, but because I am not at the poverty level, I am unable to get assistance with paying for this insulin. I have been off of this insulin for 2 days, and my blood sugars are rising 250-500. I need this insulin, and I need help in order to be able to start using it again."
