Yes, I have elevated blood sugar and hair thinning as a side effect of Lanreotide treatment. Still no meds for diabetes, but I take biotin (10K) for the hair.
Diagnosed with pNET in 12/22, had surgery 2/23, on Lanreotide (120mg/28days) since 4/23

Thank you for answering. I'm only two shots in, but my blood sugar has been insane the last week. I've had my lobectomy, done the chemo, then the immunotherapy, and now the hormone therapy. But honestly I feel worse on the lanreotide than the immunotherapy. Do the side effects get better over time? The only thing that is better, I've had next to no flushing.
