For the first time since my dx in April, this past week my son and I went to an amusement park and rode the roller coasters. I love the coasters and they have never made me feel sick. This time was different. After the second roller coaster ride I thought I was going to throw-up. I’m 52 years old and have been riding coasters most of my life. Rides that go around in circles have always made me feel sick and I won’t go on them…not roller coasters.
I am a non-insulin using T2 and I take Metformin twice/day. We were in the park for just a few hours with no plans or need to eat so I didn’t have my monitor with me. So I don’t know what was going on with my bs through all this. My bs was good before going into the park and it was ok when I got back to the car several hours later.
I don’t know if the D and/or the Metformin contributed to the nausea or if I am just getting too old for the coasters…my poor son was so worried and then when I was feeling better and he realized he would be riding the coasters alone…he called me a wussss(sp).
I am just wondering if anyone else experienced something like this.
