Last edited 2 months ago As a matter of fact I have noticed that my ankles and feet are more swollen. My doctor has not put me on a water pill yet and just tells me to walk as much as possible regardless of my swollen feet. Easy for hi to say, he is not the one with uncomfortable feet! I will keep tabs on this discussion and see if anyone comes up with good ideas for us.

When Doc put me on Lantus my ankles got about twice their normal size and swelled out the tops of my shoes. He took me off of it and put me on something else. He tried me on a diuretic first but it didn't get any better so that was the ultimate outcome. Marked my file as allergic to Lantus. You might want to discuss whether it is an allergic reaction with your doctor. |

I HAVE BEEN ON LANTUS A FEW YEARS I HAVE HAD NO PROBLEMS WITH THE LEGS SWELLING. |
Has anyone who uses Lantus had a problem with their legs swelling at all? I have recently switched to Lantus and have had some leg swelling issues since I have been using the Lantus. Thanks, Sheryl
