My p doc didn't want me to go back on Ambien, so he has me on temazepam, with the melatonin if that doesn't do the trick. I'm still not happy with it. I have to take the temazepam about 1 hour before bed, but I don't always know what time that will be. I tried it without the melatonin, and i still had weird dreams. Tried Remeron years ago, and that didn't help. Truly, Ambien CR was the first and only drug that worked for my two-pronged sleep disorder. I never had grogginess, the munchies, or the hornies, or any of the other reported side effects. My memory sucks most of the time anymore anyway, so I'd never know if was Ambien doing it, LOL.

I find that lately I'm still in dream sleep when my alarm goes off, so I have a he11 of a time getting up -- maybe it's throwing off the timing of the sleep cycle, too. I wish I could just get back to sleeping without anything. That's what I'm working toward. Maybe after the D. (fingers crossed)
