The adhd could explain why he can't read or write yet. I'd would suppose if he has had this diagnosed he's being followed up now and given the necessary specialist help? If so you need to make sure this is happening. The ADHD is not related to diabetes. Also who suggested cutting out wheat and dairy? Diabetics need to cut down on sugar and refined carbohydrates, things like bread and pasta have to be taken in restricted amounts. Have you seen your GP? It's very important to get his diabetic control right so you and your child need to get all the education about what to eat, insulin use etc. It is stressful, as change is always hard but it's important to get this right.
