My insurance now requires me to buy the generic-label insulin instead of the brand-label. You'd expect the generic to be cheaper, right?
True for the middle men, but not for the patient! More proof that the insurance+PBM+drug companies are a giant scam. #insulin4all
Shakespeare once said: “I cried because I had no shoes, then I met a man who had no feet”. When I stopped caring about my petty T1D issues is the day I found my purpose to advocate for it. All I could think of was #insulin4all

T1International's Ambassador, Nicole Smith-Holt, lost her son to insulin rationing in 2017. We want Eli Lilly to do more to recognize insulin as a human right. If you do, too, sign the petition here: actionnetwork.org/petitions/lill… #insulin4all
It's World Health Day! Access to insulin is a human right. Patients should be treated as the experts they are, & must be engaged with in better, more meaningful ways by decision-makers, health providers, etc! Let's use today, & every day, to continue advocating for #insulin4all !
Dr Mohammed Seyam of T1International, from Palestine, notes that when the earthquake hits or the bombs drop, your immediate reaction is gtfo of your house. Not calmly walk to your fridge or think of your dm education. But w/o insulin you're dead #insulin4all #DMinCrises
