If not you must be very close Sally. 44 years diagnosed is a really long time!

I'm 56 and diagnosed for 31 years!

I fit 6 of your criteria. I am younger than 45, on Medicare and Medicaid, have a prescription plan and receive assistance for that, I'm on C, and I fall in to the cracks. But, "I look so good" don't I? LOL.

This is a very interesting poll, KM.
