diabetes, type 2
"My doctor prescribed lantus at an increase of two units every three days until my fasting sugars are at 120 or below.  After two months my readings still range between 250 and 315.  I started at 20 units and am now up to 50.  It probably is lowering my blood sugar to some degree, but not significantly.  I need something more effective. At this rate I'll be up to 80 units daily or more to reach my goal and will suffer side effects from such a high dose.  I feel hungry all the time since using this and I've gained weight. "
