For Type 2 Diabetes "Was put on Toujeo SoloStar back in early December and ended up using 90 units to gain glucose control. My downsides were stiff joints and breathlessness, which worsened with time and became a terrible pain in the top of my right lung 5 months on. I stopped the insulin, and the pain was reduced within 24 hours and cleared within 72 hours. When I resumed taking the insulin, I had awful pain back again within two hours, so I stopped again and now a slow recovery over the next 72 hours. This should be removed from prescribing as it is an awful drug and really made me ill."
