CanadaMedicineShop - Cannot obtain insulin anymore

Not a happy camper. For years, we have ordered humalog from Canada Medicine Shop, with no problems whatsoever. We felt fortunate to find it online bc we don't have insurance (costs $750/month for a family of three), so paying $258 for 6 vials was fantastic! Finding it here in the US is easy enough but the consumer gets raked over the coals regarding price: online it was $43/vial, in-store it was $89 (!!!!!). NOW, "humalog" has become a dirty word: can't find it with CMS and they evade questions. Almost impossible to find ANYWHERE online. When i have been lucky enough to find it, it's astronomically priced! $206/vial or higher!! It's as though suddenly someone got wind of folks ordering from overseas and somehow put a stop to it. If it's the U.S., they have PLENTY of more worth-while things to be concerned with, nevermind folks ordering their insulin from cheaper places. Rather than simply LOWER the prices here, they RAISED them online. Dirty, dirty pool. Someone somewhere is more upset with not getting kickbacks (apparently) than the health of diabetics nationwide. Disgusting. Who in the world would have the power to force Canadian sites to up their prices? Does anyone know what's up?
