[QUOTE="DCUKMod, post: 2137268, member: 345386"] Emile, I'm not at all sure about a coupe of points in your post. In particular, it is my understanding that insulin enables cells to use glucose. One of the reasons T1s starve (and ergo lose weight) due to their body being unable cell ability to use glucose without[I][B] [/B][/I]adequate insulin. However, as a non-T1, I'll tag a few experienced T1s to comment on the OP's overall situation, and help settle the difference in the conflicting understandings between you and I. I also don't read anywhere in the OPs posts that her son eats a reduced carb diet, only that [USER=501042]@Triscornia[/USER] has tried increasing his carbs a bit where she can. [USER=140811]@urbanracer[/USER] , [USER=372207]@Antje77[/USER] , [USER=181361]@helensaramay[/USER] , [USER=334119]@porl69[/USER] - could you help please? [USER=501042]@Triscornia[/USER] - I agree with the others who enquire what investigations your Doc may have done to eliminate other underlying causes for your son's weight loss. [/QUOTE]
