Kaylee,

My Glucose levels were a little high while going through my transplant and after, so I started eating rice krispies for breakfast (which is also gluten free), and Glucerna protein shakes, it's just like Ensure or Boost drinks... You may want to look at almond, soy or other milk substitutes, as they may have less sugar than milk (skim milk has a lot of sugar)... I'm not diabetic, but always try and keep my sugar and salt intake in check...

Here is a site about Neutropenic diets:

No expert, but just some thoughts....

All the best, and God Bless...
