Definitely discontinued. I feel distraught to be honest, I don't know what I'm going to do ! I tried the high GI rolls once and they really spiked me so they're a no-go.

I find 85% is the sweet spot, particularly the Moser Roth from Aldi which is AMAZING !

I wish you luck in your pursuit, I am prediabetic and consume about 80-100g carbs a day. I've found it difficult to sustain any lower. My fasting level on a Tee2 meter is actually increasing to my astonishment. It was down to mid 5s but the last few weeks has been mid 6s. I've learned over the...

Hi, she had microvascular decompression, which is major brain surgery, they cut a hole in the side of your head, separate the blood vessel which is touching the nerve and wrap teflon round the nerve then put you back together again. Even that isn't a 100% guarantee of a fix for the neuralgia...

Hi Crocodile, your symptoms sound very similar to mine. I'm Pre-D and have neuropathy in both feet, numbness to the balls of feet and pain sometimes. I have seen podiatrists, neurologists and had nerve studies done. The diagnosis was small fibre neuropathy likely caused by higher than normal...

How long is the cryo nerve block supposed to dampen the pain for ? Out of interest was it a neurologist who recommended it over gamma knife, balloon compression, glycerol injection etc?

Are you taking Carbamazenine , i have early onset neuralgia with short shock like pains at my right jaw hinge.

Moser Roth 85% from Aldi is amazing , cheap enough and about the same carbs as other 85% chocolate, ie. about 18g per 100.

I believe one of the main reasons for my prediabetes is 20 years of poor sleep. I'm convinced of it. I am sleeping slightly better at the moment and have noticed a slight drop in fasting blood glucose.

The Hovis Lower Carb Deliciously Seeded is 9.8g per slice, I like it, doesn't spike me.

I was on Mirt for about 3 years, i put on 2 stone, it did help emotional issues and sleep. I had no grogginess or any other side effects the day after.

Thats a very interesting link Alison. I found the quote below interesting: "If your blood sugar did not reach 140 mg/dl (7.7 mmol/L) an hour after taking a large dose of carbohydrates and if it was below 120 mg/dl (6.7 mmol/L) two hours after you ate the large dose of carbohydrate, most health...

As mentioned, Livlife is lovely and 3.8g a slice but it is tiny. I also like Burgen or Vogels Soya and Linseed. Neither spike me particularly. I saw a Hovis multi-seed bread at lunchtime today which looked nice and was 9g carbs a slice.

Back on the Lidl High Protein Rolls. Toasted or microwaved, it removes the plasticky texture.

After 2 years of eating the high protein rolls I seem to have hit a wall, i've gone from loving them to enduring them to loathing them. Its recently taken me up to an hour to eat one. I'm having a week off and finding a substitute, hopefully i will rekindle my interest in them as they were a...

I had lots of weeing (still do at night) tiredness and neuropathy in both feet which started at exactly the time of pre-d diagnosis.

Hi, you don't automatically have to give up all bread, there are varieties that are lower in carbs. As mentioned, Lidl high protein rolls are good and there are Livlife, Hi-lo, Tesco High-Protein which are all under 10g a slice and then Burgen Soya and Linseed at around 11g and Vogel at around...

I didn't in the end, still taking 500mg a day. Neuropathy is a bit better, I think thanks to the r-ala I'm taking.

Tried the Heidi stuff, it's okay but I didn't rush to buy anymore. Sainsbury Taste The Difference 85% is really nice and usually about £1.25 a bar.

Posted this on another thread....Moser Roth 85% from Aldi. It's THE BEST (and cheap) !
