ongoing erratic sleeping patterns

Over the last few months now I've been experiencing on going night time symptoms where I'll wake up anywhere from 130am - 530am sometimes with this slight feeling that I needed to pee.  However I don't always end up actually peeing. The times I have been to pee during these early mornings I can void around 400/500ml so not an excessive amount. Around 6am I can fall asleep again for another couple of hours. Sometimes though I won't go at all until the morning around 8am before work and other nights I have managed a decent sleep of around 6-7 hours. Some nights I'll wake up momentarily only to fall asleep but it's when I wake up around 330-5am and I'm wide awake as if I've slept 8 hours that bothers me. 

I don't have any other symptoms apart from this slight need to pee (and as I said I don't end up peeing 50% of the time) but no nausea, I don't feel thirsty, never feel tired, or have any pain anywhere etc.

During the day time I've had mostly normal urination patterns/frequency. 

These night time issues though are still bothering me a bit.

Also I had my prostate/PSA test and that's all normal, urine culture/test came back normal too. Personal blood sugar monitoring was normal too. 

So I'm not sure what this could be. Doctor suspected it could be over active bladder but then I think that would be frequent urination with small amounts but to be honest it's these choppy sleeping patterns that are bothering me now more than anything, less so the urination patterns (which are mostly normal other than the occasional void waking up).

    I have sleep issues similar to yours. Except for peeing.

    But my brother had the same problem with peeing. Prostate was fine and his bladder was fine. So his doctor put him on some kind of diet and everything straightened out over a months time and then he went back on his regular eating ..never heard of that before though , but it worked. Haven't asked him what kind of diet yet though. Gonna have to find out , just in case that ever happens to me. Wish I could be more help to you but that's pretty much all I know..
