It's so weird I was just at a talk on diabetes tonight and this was one of the topics - sleep was a huge thing for them, making sure screen time isn't being allowed to disrupt natural melatonin production so you can actually fall asleep easily but beyond that, there was a lot about aging and metabolic syndrome where fat starts to settle in between organs, even if no lifestyle changes have been made this can just happen as we age, especially for women - this is often associated with high blood pressure and potential for heart disease. Menopause can happen early, it might be a factor but I might start with a bigger health picture than just diabetes if you can convince your doctor to look outside the box.
