Hello Sir, Loss of appetite in a diabetic patient along with body pain, especially at night, should not be ignored. Even if most reports are normal except HbA1c (7.5), eating very little food daily is not sufficient for energy or nutrition. This can make weakness, body pain, and weight issues worse. Some common causes could be uncontrolled diabetes, stomach or liver-related issues, depression, or even medication side effects. At this stage, it is important to: Get him evaluated by a physician to rule out any hidden infection, stomach/liver problem, or depression. Encourage small, frequent meals instead of expecting him to eat full plates. Foods like light soups, porridge, khichdi, fruits, and soft home-cooked meals can be easier to take. Good control of diabetes is very important, otherwise appetite and energy will remain low. Since appetite loss is persistent, please do not delay a medical check-up. I hope it helps you. For proper management and treatment, you can consult me, just go to my profile.

Thank you for sharing these details about your father. Loss of appetite and body pain in someone with diabetes can have several causes—sometimes related to poor sugar control (HbA1c of 7.5 is moderately high), nutritional deficiencies, mood changes, or even underlying chronic conditions. From what you describe, his current intake (a glass of milk, 1 chapati, tea with biscuits) is very inadequate for his daily needs. This can easily lead to weakness, weight loss, and low energy, which can further worsen appetite—a vicious cycle. Holistic Approach: 1. Medical Review: • A thorough clinical evaluation is needed to rule out hidden causes like gastritis, depression, diabetic neuropathy, or early infections. • Ask his physician if medications (like metformin or painkillers) are affecting appetite. Sometimes simple changes help. 2. Diabetes & Nutrition: • Even if he eats small portions, focus on nutrient-dense foods: soft dals, vegetable upma, khichdi, curd rice, soups, and boiled eggs (if non-vegetarian). • Instead of tea + biscuits, try giving him small protein snacks like roasted chana, sprouts, or a handful of nuts. • Protein powder can be continued, but ideally under supervision so it doesn’t interfere with sugar control. 3. Appetite Stimulation: • Gentle daily walks and light exercise often improve hunger and sleep. • Warm soups or light herbal teas (ginger, jeera, ajwain) before meals can help digestion. • Eating in smaller, frequent meals is better than forcing large portions. 4. Monitoring: • Keep track of his weight weekly. • Watch for red flags: persistent fever, severe weight loss, vomiting, or change in bowel habits—these need urgent review. Next Steps: • Please schedule a detailed check-up with his diabetologist/physician soon. • Request dietary counselling from a nutritionist who can build a diabetes-friendly meal plan around his current appetite. • Support him emotionally—loss of appetite can also reflect stress, low mood, or fatigue, not just physical illness. Word of Caution: Do not ignore ongoing poor intake. Even with normal blood reports, malnutrition can set in quickly. If his appetite does not improve in the next 1–2 weeks, further evaluation (chest X-ray, abdominal ultrasound, additional labs) may be necessary to rule out hidden causes.
