How can a homeless (uninsured) diabetic living in RI get help to pay for medical supplies (testing strips, medication, insulin, etc)? Are there any clinics or anything that will help? What are the options for getting some kind of medical insurance?

Please don’t bother answering with "I don’t know". That’s not at all helpful.

I am 6 weeks and 4 days pregnant. I failed the 1 hour glucose test for gestational diabetes last week with an ending glucose level of 188. I’m going back in 3 days for the 3 hour glucose test. Is it likely that I will fail that one too? Or is failing the 1 hour test common? Thanks for any input.
Yes, I was tested this early b/c I’m at high risk b/c I’ve had 2 children that weighed over 9 pounds. Also, this glucose level was on an empty stomach.
