I don't know of any accredited programs that accept MPH students without a GRE score unless they are in a five-year BS/MPH program. You could try transfering to a school that has a general public health certificate program (or other certificate of your interest), take the GRE before the summer, and then transfer into that school full-time and transfer the certificate credits towards your MPH.

I agree with twizzler86. I think you should definitely take the GRE--just spend a month or so studying. You might even be able to spend less time. You don't need a stellar score to get into top PH programs, as long as you have other credentials that make up for it. If you are in NC, you could try applying to UNC-Chapel Hill. In-state tuition + great program.
