What helps the symptoms of Small Fiber Neuropathy?

Hi, if you don’t mind me asking, what happened when Ambien was suddenly stopped? It’s those warnings that come with some meds that makes me reluctant to try them. Thanks!

Good evening Debbie. I had never heard about tapering off the medication. The surgery was done and so I just stopped it. I was a crazy person......psychologically bruised and frightened. I was by myself and had no one to help me so I called my surgeons office. He about croaked.
A friend of mine did the same thing and she had a meltdown in Costco. Guess that was a real lesson also. I am sure my surgeon thought I knew better. He sure was kind and helpful.

I am on ambien as well and was told by a sleep Psychologist that never go cold turkey. It’s better to taper off week to week and vary day to day. She is the one who advised me how to use a cpap machine for I am claustrophobic. I sleep better and longer but haven’t started weening of the ambien yet (afraid too).
