My niece believes she will get diabetes because of family history, and also she is overweight. She is approaching 40 now, and still has not been diagnosed with the disease. Is it common to get diabetes after 40?

This is a very interesting article. I was wondering if a male with an enlarged prostate gland, resulting in multiple sleep interruptions could have his insulin level affected by this condition? I am a type II diabetic, taking Lantus at bedtime and can not account for my high blood glucose level in the morning.
