"My GP states this is normalNormal saline flush and will eventually pass."
It appears you are experiencing well known severe sides effects of Lantus. Have you spoken with your endo about your discomfort and other options? Go here and read "before taking insulin Glargine (Lantus)" http***www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/druginfo/meds/a600027.html See if this applies to you.
I have been on Lantus for a little over a year and have had the same symptoms you are describing except for the chest pains. I have also read on here where alot of other people experience the burning sensation.
