Hi Mark- thanks for the info. Ambien is very strange, but I must say that it works. I have learned to be very, very careful what I say and do and write and compute 20-30 minutes after I take it. I was told I talked very slowly and sounded drugged (don't remember this phone call) and then every once and awhile I look at my emails from the night before...no more emails after taking the ambien! Falling out of bed...yikes. Can't say that has happened to me. PLEASE be ever so careful...it helps to have humor and laugh at ourselves. I feel deeply for LK having lost an entire years worth of memories. Sometimes as they say the cure is worse than the disease. Thanks for sharing, Mark. I hope you're getting some rest. best to you, jacquie

My wife says I have fallen out of bed twice, that I flop around so much she thought we were having an earthquake -- I'll take it one more time just so she can videotape it and show me what it does, but I've actually hurt my back TWICE falling out of bed, and of course I thought I got a perfectly peaceful night's sleep.
