Good day

My question is medical related. I am type 1 diabetic and am living in Bangkok. I just want to know what the general pricing for insulin is here, without insurance, as I haven't gotten insurance here yet. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you !

TLDR : Answer Summary
A user in Bangkok seeking information on the cost of insulin without insurance for type 1 diabetes received varying comments. One user mentioned they paid £22 for a box of 5 Humulin while another suggested that pre-existing conditions, like diabetes, might not be covered by insurance.
