From the symptoms you have given, it is likely that your sister’s sleep disorders arises from her diabetes complication. I suggest that you see a sleep expert and get her tested to determine the kind of treatment needed. In terms of her falls, it is necessary to consider a neurologist in order not to miss any underlying issue with the nervous system. Make sure you consult your doctor every time an issue pertaining to health arises.
