User Comments about Humalog
28 Dec 2015 I've been using Humalog approximately 10 years and I have recently begun to experience pain in my arms and hands. At times it feels like a current running through my arms and is much worse at night.

08 Jun 2014 Humalog replaced Lantus which I could not tolerate at all. I have gained weight and cannot lose it despite vigorous exercise and sensible diet. I often experience over-all body ache and pain in my shoulders, arms and hands at night. When I recently increased my units, my urine has an extremely obnoxious odor
