Need Insurance as soon as possible
Diagnosed With Diabetic Ketoacidosis
I'll try to be as to the point as possible but I'm very worried and tbh on the verge of freaking out. I was brought to the hospital with diabetic Ketoacidosis on Friday and I'm still here. I'm posting from the hospital right now. I had no idea I was diabetic, but when I came in the doctors said they had no idea how I was still standing. I am 29 living in GA and a minority. If you are from GA you will understand. I've been on an insulin drip since I've got here, and the last day and a half they have me on shots and gave stopped the drip. I am having a hard time keeping my blood sugar below 300. Apparently the safe range is 100 – 120. As I have no insurance the hospital is trying to get me out as soon as possible. The doctors have no idea what is going on and said I need to see an outside specialist. The only reason I'm sharing my medical history is to explain the messed up situation I woke up in. I can't keep my blood sugar down, I have no idea what's going on; and I am honestly really really scared. I don't know how I'm going to afford insulin, and without insurance I don't know how ill find help to figure out what even is going or what I need to do once I leave. I've been calling insurance companies all day, I don't qualify for any "special enrollment" options. Please does anybody know what I can do in this situation I really need the help.
If this is the wrong place to post this I'm sorry, please direct me to the right place.
