Type 2 Trulicity & Ongoing Nausea

[Frustrated24]

Hi All,

So I am a T2DM on Insulin, who has recently started on Trulicity once a week injection to help with better control.

I have one question or comment, can someone please reassure me that the ongoing nausea, Sulphur belches & vomiting do actually stop. I feel naff, I do not want food because of the nausea, and when I do manage to get something down me, I then feel really sick and have a horrid epigastric pain.

I am really not sure that I can cope with this for many more weeks.

or if anyone has any ideas to prevent the symptoms mentioned above

Have you thought about adjusting what you eat?

I took it for 4 weeks last great 5 and it just got worse as time went on. It isn't suitable for everyone so don't feel disheartened.

Then please watch out for hypos if you are still taking insulin.

Having been on insulin for nearly 15yrs i am fully aware of the consequences thank you.

You have been on insulin since you were 28 and they reckon you have Type 2?

I suggest you contact your HCP as it sounds like you are having a pretty rough time of it.
