diabetes

last year at IMFL, I cramped up during the ride and quit at 100 miles. I had started to get nauseated about 50 miles and just kept getting behind on fluids. I think I have found the reason. I was on a med called Trulicity for diabetes. One of the mechanisms of action in this class is delayed gastric emptying. So basically, my stomach wasn't emptying, thus the nausea. I changed meds and now, no problems. other meds in this class are Byetta, Victoza, Tanzeum, Bydureon. These are great meds , but maybe not for us.
