7. I must admit, I don't pay attention to the over-the-counter price

I have a pretty fair insurance plan under my current employer (hopefully for a while to come). I did find this site which does a cost comparison for different sources of Lantus. If you're willing to go with a Canadian pharmacy, it looks like you can save a bit. Still, not cheap by any means.

I have done extremely well so far. My latest eye exam still showed no appreciable signs of retinopathy, and other than a slower healing time for cuts on my feet and lower legs, nothing serious there either.

Seems like a great time to be a lab mouse - you can live diabetes and cancer free. Humans? - not so much...

Best of luck to you dealing with this sucky disease.

Edit - you might want to take a look at the first comment from the above link, may be some help for you there.
