being diabetic in the american healthcare system is soo fucking exhausting and not in the “i have to constantly be monitoring what i’m eating and how much insulin i’m getting” way (which is also exhausting but has gotten easier w technology) but in the “can my fucking supplier please ship my pump supplies so that i don’t have to revert to giving myself injections every couple hours and possibly miss work while i wait for them to show up”

#like. i am type one diabetic. have been for 15 years. it’s not fucking going away so why do i have to fucking jump through hoops #just to stay alive. beyond infuriating…#in canada it was like. okay pull up to pharmacy. ask for supplies and then they give me the supplies.#and also like. you can’t just go from pump to injections and vice versa…#injections require two insulins while the pump just needs one so guess who had to call their doctor AND THEN call the pharmacy. god
