In most cases the 'cause' only gives us piece of mind that we know what it is...it doesn't change the outcome. But in some cases, the treatment may change, so always good (I think) to explore some of the causes.
All depending on how long you have been taking the zolpidem, you may experience some withdrawal symptoms if you just stop taking it.

The first time when I went to a doctor for burning pain, he thought I was making it up, they didn't have much in the way of testing 30 years go. He ended up giving me a prescription multi vitamin, that of course, did nothing. The testing has come a long way, with DNA blood tests, nerve conduction studies, but wish they would find a cure, this disease is getting old.
I have stopped zolpidem before, I just started taking it again about 3 weeks ago. The withdrawal for me, is mostly insomnia. I have taken it off and on for about 3 years. No sleep eating or sleep driving yet! (that I know of...)
