[QUOTE="db89, post: 1835655, member: 374526"] Is he taking injections that are adjusted for his meals or are they fixed doses? If they're being adjusted depending on what he eats a couple of thoughts: [LIST] [*]If he's struggling to eat the breakfast could the portion be reduced? [*]If the portion size isn't too big but he's struggling to eat it could the injection be split (half up front, half after) so that he doesn't feel forced to eat the whole thing? [*]Could the injection be given after breakfast (I'm not going to pretend this way wouldn't be good for dealing with the spike in blood glucose but it wouldn't force him to eat it all)? [*]If he's not hungry does he have to have breakfast every morning? [/LIST] Before doing anything with doses check with his nurse for their thoughts as the usual 'everyone is individual' applies.
