Pre-CRPS, I took ambien for another reason for about 4 weeks. There was good reason the pharmacist said to get off it ASAP: I got tired of everyone else telling what kind of dumb things I did the night before! The amnesia thing was too embarrasing. Haven't taken it since! I have found useful utility in 0.5 mg lorazepam at bedtime. Seems to get me through to 3 or 4 am without the nasty side effects...
