Or a similar chronic disease? I do not have diabetes but my girlfriend has type 1. We are American. It's insane how much money she has to shell out just to live. Hundreds of dollars per month. Usually several hundred additional dollars if she needs a hospital visit which happens once or twice a year. We have medical debt piling on top of our school debt.
Is dealing with diseases like this as manageable as I imagine in other countries? I've heard other Healthcare systems aren't great either but surely nothing is worse than this.
