So, lately my insomnia has been super bad. The only day I slept was Wednesday and it was all day, waking up about every 2 hours and falling back to sleep. I have been taking trazodone, 100mg but increased to 200mg. Still couldn't sleep.
Today I went to the doctor. He said trazodone normally doesn't stop working suddenly, he wants a blood test done for my kidney's, liver, blood sugar, etc. I left panicking that it is a serious disease that is causing my insomnia. I read kidney disease can cause insomnia, same with diabetes. Even after I slept all day Wednesday, I still felt extremely exhausted.
Also, he put me on 10mg of ambien. Anyone here take it? I'm really scared of sleep walking. My room is upstairs, I worry about waking up and falling down the stairs, going outside and getting hurt, etc. He wants to wean me off trazodone, I take 50mg an hour before bed, then I take ambien as soon as I go to bed. I'm on ambien for only 2 weeks.
