[QUOTE="kitedoc, post: 2101887, member: 468714"] Hi [USER=411549]@Leeannea[/USER], Fellow Aussie here. Intramuscular Lantus might be one of your worries but regarding Lantus vs Levemir I invite you to look ar diabettech.com Lantus: Lethal or Lifesaver? which might help you to see Levemir's relative benefit compared to Lantus. I reckon injection into a blood vessel is rare, but it can happen and people on this site and others have reported the sudden hypo onset when they have accidentally hit a blood vessel when injecting Lantus ( i remember [USER=57774]@Rab[/USER] and [USER=419831]@alphabeta[/USER] posting in past threads). And it worries me that prescribers are not warning people of this potential problem with Lantus ( compared to absence of rosk with injection Levemir or Tresiba). I hope this helps to encourage you to consider trying out your prescribed Levemir. Best Wishes:):):) [/QUOTE]
