What Are The Causes Of Bedwetting In Older Children?

Hi there, I have a ten year old daughter who has a problem with wetting the bed. She was fine and potty trained fine and then she started wetting the bed about 3 years ago. We have tried everything to help her with this problem but are getting no where. I recently took her back to the doctor and they did test her for diabetes and they said she did not have it. She has a black ring around her neck and under her arms (I always heard that was a sign of something being wrong) But when I took her she weighed about 157 pounds and she is 5 4 and she wears a women s 13 shoe! and only 10 yrs. old! What do you recommend?

She might just have insulin resistance at this stage, with good lifestyle she can prevent it.
