Dear Jonus
I am sorry to hear of your problem. I would suggest that you consult a clinical dietitian (check the List of Dietitians on this Website or phone 082-593-0276 or send an e-mail to sscharf@nhcltd.com or look in your local telephone directory or Yellow Pages, to find a dietitian in your area), because you need to have an individual diet worked out for your special condition, which takes lack of exercise into account.
Best regards
