I need info on temporary health insurance coverage with a type II diabetes pre-existing condition?

My cobra policy ran out 12/31/07 and I start a new job on 2/4/08. There is a 3 month waiting period for the new group policy to take effect. That will put me over the 63 day period time lapse and I will loose coverage on my pre-existing conditions. Does anyone know of a company that offers stop gap short term coverage that accepts Type II diabetics? Thanks for the help.
--------------------
You don't need a temporary policy for two reasons: 1) your new plan's 3-month waiting period is NOT counted against your 63-day HIPAA period; 2) if you accept a temporary policy, under HIPAA rules, you will give up your right to transfer your "creditable coverage" to your new insurer. If your new plan has a pre-existing condition exclusionary period, you'd have no protection. If you're able, it's best for you to pay out of pocket until your new coverage takes effect.
