Brief Answer:
You need evaluation.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your question.
Noted your concern.

If you are not a diabetic and not on treatment for it blood sugar level of 70 is considered as normal.

In such case I may suggest -
- Detailed history taking & physical examination.
- Investigations like
Complete Blood Count
Renal Function Test
Liver Function Test
Calcium Profile
Vitamin B12.
Vitamin D3.
Ultra TSH.
Urine examination.

Depending upon detailed clinical examination and above test results appropriate management can be planned.

Also one need to work on causes of irregular sleep.
Mental stress is one of the common reason.
If it there try some relaxation techniques, meditation, yoga.

Hope this helps you.

Regards,
Dr Abhay Mali.
