"My doctor gave me a sample vial of Lyumjev because my Medicare prescription plan is dropping Humalog that I use in my Tandem TSlim pump. I also have a Dexcom G6 CGM which communicates with my Tandem pump and I use the Tandem Control IQ feature to keep my blood sugars within range and very rarely have a hypo event using Humalog. Lyumjev is not approved by the pump manufacturer, but apparently Cigna does not care. So, after using an entire vial of Lyumjev, I may have to get an exception to continue getting Humalog or its equivalent. Lyumjev caused fairly severe stinging at the infusion site, especially during boluses. It also caused my skin to react and sometimes have minor bleeding at the cannula which would bleed out to the infusion site bandage. I kept trying to find infusion locations which would not sting so much, but, in my case, it still stung fairly significantly. My endocrinologist warned me that this was a known side effect."
