Yes I have the 99% it is less bitter than Lidl's 95% but as you say, very expensive.Hi
Have you tried the Lindt 99% dark chocolate? I like it, but it's the same price as the 90% and you only get half as much. For that reason, I have one 10g square of the 90% in the morning with my coffee and another in the afternoon.
Daisey,
Thanks for the input
Not wishing to bore or put my problems on others but:-
Had a Hypo last night, Blood Sugar 3.2
Had a Mars bar to correct situation
Before bed Blood Sugar increased to 6.1
On waking Blood Sugar 7.1, I always get this dump
Breakfast : Fried Egg/Bacon/Tomato/Mushroom/Black Pudding/Black Coffee
2 Hours later Blood Sugar 9.7
So why the increase with food with no sugar?
Forgot to say, I did 30 minutes of light exercise after BreakfastDaisey,

Did this aid the increase?
Thanks, the other trend that I've noted & I think strange is that since I've ceased having fruit for lunch & no potatoes in the evening my B. Sugar has been lower 2 hours after meals than 2 hours before meals.
Any ideas why?
Examples:-
8.6 7.9
6.8 3.8
7.2 4.0
Anyway press on & look for improvements
Bluetit,
Many thanks, at lunch today, bore meal BS was 6.8, after 3.8 so think you are correct.
Will get a couple of weeks readings then see the nurse.
B.Tit, question, do you think BS should go up before having any more food, or best to have Biscuit now?
