Rozy288, you need a new doctor. And also need to go to a gastrointestinal doctor who can hopefully help you. Get off the Ambien!! It's the WORST medication ever.....have you ever tried Lorazepam? If not, ask your doctor for it. It has helped my sleep issues when nothing else did. Mixing different benzos will cause more issues and not help at all. Yes....you need to break free from this vicious cycle....you deserve to feel good...and keep going back to your doctor until you have found something that helps/works! Good Luck to you! Praying for you.
