You can infact talk to his regular doctor (as you go for his regular diabetes management) and discuss about your particular concerns. Let the doctor check him thoroughly and decide what needs to be done. Some tests might be advised if required to know the reasons for his complaints. You can revert after that for any further information or clarification. Generally speaking, self-talk and talking in sleep is not considered as a major problem.
