"Been on this medicine for 12 weeks, and at first, it was great, and then here come the side effects. Raised blood sugar, increase in sweating, bruising, skin discoloration at the injection site, itching at the injection site, abdominal weight gain. Then, of course, the price of the medication. Insurance and the Acthar Foundation covered the cost, but still, yikes."
