Well, I usually get up at least once.
In my case it is a bonus of sorts because I usually sleep for more than 8 hours in total and I use a Freestyle Libre which has an 8 hour memory, so if I sleep through I lose data.

Of course it could also be age related as people of a more mature persuasion sometimes have to go to the loo more frequently.

If your sugars are ok, it is unlikely to be related to diabetes.
I recommend talking to your doctor as there are multiple things it could be. Unfortunately, diabetes does not protect us from other conditions.

Have a chat with your GP. I can be a sign of medical issues.

@podgey11, welcome to the forums. Your issues seem a little different, I suggest you start your own thread and ask about them. High blood sugars are a common cause of UTIs so if you are diabetic then this could be a sign that you need to work on your blood sugar levels.
