I think I might be diabetic but I don't have insurance, no job. What should I do?

The first step would be to screen for diabetes mellitus. There are free clinics which can test for glucose and hemoglobin A1c (a measure of blood sugar average over several months) without charge. Local hospitals can advise you about availability. If the diagnosis is confirmed, you can discuss options for medical care with a clinic social worker for programs that you may qualify for to cover expenses including supplies. Government funding is available for clinics to cover services and supplies, in many cases. Pharmaceutical companies also have programs offering free medication based on income
