Default I am in the same situation but I live in Canada

Hey

I am in the similar situation. I live in mississauga Ontario, Canada. I no longer qualifed for insurance when I stopped being a student. forunately I can afford to purchase metformin but I have not been able to do a physical or visit a doctor and get a full blood work done. My diet is not good so I am very concered that I may have full blown DIABETES. I am SCARED. I have a persistent lower back pain on my left side which makes me think it is my kidneys. I just found out from my friend that due to my status here in canada the only insurance I qualify for will only cover me for no pre-existing condition. I do not know what to do. I feel like my body is just breaking down on me. I am scared!!!!!

I do not even know which doctor in the GTA is good to see since not all doctors understand Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome.

Could anyone here give me some good advice. I am really trying. I plan to join weight watchers and try to keep taking the Metformin.
