That chocolate sounds fabulous Steph. I can almost taste it. Smile.
Pet scan injections are radioactive "glucose" based solutions. The theory is that where there is an uptake of the injected solution there is cancer. So I guess that means cancer likes glucose (sugar etc) as much as we do. I can picture nasty little cancer cells sucking up the glucose from the scan injection during the scan.
I am very careful about keeping my glucose down. I try to learn the nutritional information about almost everything I eat or drink. I only eat dark chocolate once in awhile. I go for the 72% dark chocolate or higher. I love the 85-88% dark chocolate. Actually I am getting to prefer the taste of dark chocolate more than the sweeter milk chocolate. I don't eat much cake, pie, cookies or other sweet things. I do eat fruit, but that does not have refined sugar. It has natural sugar which is healthier.
My doctor's office does not require us to fast for blood tests. I usually have my blood test in the early afternoon about 1-2 hours after lunch. My blood glucose is always under 100.
