lantus side effects

by ccfromtc, Apr 05, 2008 01:58PM
Since I started Lantus insulin, I have been sick with flu-like symptoms almost non-stop all winter. Could this be a side-effect of this insulin? I had tried Levimar just before changing to Lantus and my blood pressure went very high so the dr. changed me over and now this. Have I just had a bed winter or could this be the cause?

I personally have not heard of specific symptoms like this as far as allergic responses go, but I encourage you to discuss these symptoms with your doctor. Each person is different. You may want to think about moving to a pump if you truly think that Lantus is the problem.
