Ambien: How can I sleep without it?

I totally get it. I have Burning Mouth Syndrome which causes a lot of pain and makes it hard to fall asleep. Ambien has been a life saver. But now in California drug stores were told they can no longer use discount coupons for tier 2 drugs and my insurance won’t cover it. So it’s $80 a month. I can’t afford that. I wish the government wouldn’t determine that we don’t need it.

I've been on Ambiem for over 15 years! My sleep problems got awful when I had Stage IV colon cancer 21 years ago!
I had an allergic reaction to the then popular chemo drug, 5FU +. I was in a coma on Life support for 14 days. I came out of both alive, and then did kill the cancer! LOL! But it did a lot to my autoimmune system plus other things. I am lucky that 90% of my PCP understood my issues, it was the one who didn't and put me on something else that caused another reaction and caused me to black out and fall down 20' of stairs and cause a TBI!
Why can't they stop trying to dictate our lives!
I'm lucky in that I live in a Third world state they have not stopped us from using discounts like GoodRX.
My thoughts go out to you!
