Since chocolate also contains serotonin it can make you relaxed or sleepy. It also contains a small amount of caffeine which apparently doesn't stimulate you. I don't think you get enough sleep which is another cause of sleepiness or fatigue before bedtime. There is no harm in getting checked for diabetes.
