Lantus and sugars

I have been on lantus for a while..the first few months were perfect...good HbA1c's. Then all hell broke loose...my sugars started fluctuating, HbA1c always above 8%, added 15 kgs...especially around my abdomen and am always bloated. Am really tired of people asking when am due..and am not even pregnant..just on LANTUS!!!

i have been using lantus for about 1 year.i have bloating,sweating,depressed,short of breath,belching,sugar gets low,does anyone have these problems?my email is *******

I have had severe weight gain. 30lbs in one month of bloating. The doctor put me on Demedex for water retention. I have been on that for a week now and it has made no difference as of yet. This is ridiculous. I have so much swelling in my legs and feet that it feels like they are submerged in buckets filled with concrete. Yes my blood sugar has lowered significantly...but I am more miserable now then when my sugars were over 300. Is there anything else out there that is better than this?????
