Guest guest Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 Hi. I'm still new at this so have another couple of questions. 1. Is weight gain a possible side effect when taking Insulin? I'm only currently taking ten units in the evening of Lantus. I seem to be gaining some weight and I haven't really changed my diet or eating habits so I'm wondering if it's a side effect as it can be with Metformin. 2. Currently, it is my primary care physician that is managing how much Insulin I should take and when. Is this ok, or should I be requesting and endocrinologist? I'm thinking that since my dosage is so small and only once per evening, I'm ok with the primary care for the time being but was curious as to what the norm really is? Thanks.
