Hi was just wondering if anyone on here had ever had any problems with lantus.I git put on it for about 4 months a while back aftr about 3 or 4 days I started to develop a really itchy rash like hives and went to my gp who more or less said it was an allergy to something but not insulin as that would be very unusual. however this continued and after being prescribed almost every antihistimine on the market I still felt completely miserable and was covering in severe bruising and scrapes with scratching continuously!! Eventually one saturday morning I got up to find My face had totally swelt up so much so that could hardly open my eyes and my lips made mick jaggers look tiny I went to my local casualty to be told it was something I had eaten definately not the lantus. the following monday I went to my diabetic nurse and told her to put me back onto insulitard she put me on levemir instead and two days later The rashes and swelling had gone although they still have not admitted it was the lantus I know it was so really I was just having a bit of a rant but wondered if anyone else had experienced anything like this??
