Hi Naznaz95, before you check for diabetes or any other illnesses, always check to make sure that your medical card is having sufficient limit.

Because the next thing you'll need (if the tests are positive) would be treatments/medications. Its like going for a routine car maintenance, but without having the standby cash to pay should the 'mechanic' says that the valve is blocked and it needs major overhauling.

Hi Zeliard,

The medical card is not only for the diabetes. The point is that medical insurance especially health card needs to be obtained before any illness creeps in. Diabetes is subjected to a 4 month waiting period. But unless there is specific need to go into details on this, I shall not want to turn this thread into insurance thread.

It is also true about what you've mentioned. People who needs long term medication, it is best to get it from KK.

Apologize for the intrusion.
