Overactive bladder in window seat

This thread probably sounds like a joke but Mrs. Reds is flying solo tomorrow on almost a five hour flight (1845 DL DTW/LAX) tomorrow. Upgrade cleared but only windows are available.

Here's the problem, she is a diabetic and on other meds that make her use the restroom a lot. There is a good chance she will get up four times during the flight tomorrow (this is meal flight and she will need to check her sugar and take insulin which will require a lav visit right there).

She always has had aisle seats in the past or if in a window was sitting next to me so it wasn't a problem for me getting up. Is it proper etiquette to tell the person in the aisle she will be getting up a lot or should she just do it and not worry about it? She is concerned she is going to upset the person in the aisle but I told her that is the risk the aisle person takes.
