Inquire about a nutrition and occupational therapy consultation. These services may provide useful guidance and management. Avoid sugary drinks and sweets. Add nuts, nut butters to your diet, if you are not allergic.

Call the social service department at your local hospital and explain your concerns. They can arrange for a home assessment including an occupational therapist, as well as other services to evaluate your needs and help you in various ways.
