I'm currently doing the lutathera treatment that includes sandostatin shot the day after. I've done 2 so far with 2 left. Only side effects I've had is really tired after. Now the sandostatin shots I've had low blood sugar events a couple days after. Currently now my blood sugar has changed to being high, whether that's a response to treatment or caused by higher dose of diazoxide I'm currently doing is unclear. Be prepared for full day the day you receive the lutathera. Hope this helps.
