Please visit a doctor

Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXX,
Thanks for using Health Care Magic.

I read your query and understand your concerns.

Presence of insomnia is common complaint with diabetes as increased blood sugar level affects brain and causes disruption of normal functioning of brain.

I think you need to visit doctor first to get a CT scan of brain to know how it is affected and get prescription for sleep problem.

I also like to inform you that almost every medicine used for sleep problem is prescription only medicine and can be purchased with valid prescription from local doctor.

Let me know if you have any doubt, i'll be glad to clarify..

I hope this helps you.
Thanks and regards.
