Hello, First of all, thank you for your question. I am sorry to hear that your pregnancy is going poorly. The effects you describe are not common with insulin. However, insulin can cause hypoglycemia, which can cause a variety of symptoms, including mood changes. Did you test your blood sugar during these episodes? Are you experiencing other symptoms at this time such as weakness, dizziness or other symptoms? Insulin is the first choice of treatment for gestational diabetes. However, it is important to find the right dose to limit hypoglycemic episodes. On the other hand, it is also very important to treat gestational diabetes to avoid complications such as premature delivery, the birth of a larger baby, etc. In addition, do you take other medications on a regular basis or do you have any other known health problems? I hope I have answered your question, please do not hesitate if I can provide you with more information. Looking forward to hearing from you! Laurie Hudon-Germain, pharmacist
