Does anyone know if there is a correlation between sleep apnea and diabetes?

Question by Diana J: Does anyone know if there is a correlation between sleep apnea and diabetes? My husband has diabetes and Sleep Apnea. Can you tell me if you have diabetes can this cause you to have Sleep Apnea?

Best answer:

Answer by jurydoc
Is he overweight? Both diabetes and sleep apnea are correlated with obesity. This COULD be the connection. I am unaware of any direct connection between diabetes and apnea.
