ambien and heart disease

PVCs and PACs are just extra heart beats that come a little earlier than normal and therefore don't use the typical conduction system in the heart. They are not dangerous. I think that at your age getting at least an echocardiogram and considering a stress test if there are abnormalties noted on the echo or symptoms of chest pain or shortness of breath are causing a problem. Once you have had a cardiac workup that revealed and this revelas a normal heart, then they are especially benign.

I also am very Vitamin D deficient but have been working at that by doing a treatment, under supervision, of 50,000 I.U. once a week. I have heart burn and acid reflux but my Zantac soothes that. Any ideas why I would be waking up with whole body vibrations? And I having so many muscle spasms? It worries me, too that I have a stiff neck. I've been receiving therapy for it and its gotten seemingly better since the Vitamin D treatment but there was never an explanation for it.

I am a 30 year old female. And I have miastiagravis, a nerve disease, fibermialgia, anxiety and depression and bad allergies. And I'm on suboxone, ambien, phyrostigme/mestinon,clonazepam. Lately I been getting heart palpitations, sleepiness and numbness in the hands, and also in the feet. Some lightheaded and also dizziness. I have 3 kids n really trying to see if anyone knows what it could be also my hand feels real hot the last couple days when it's cold?

BTW - the person has a history of heart failure (30% squeeze of the heart today), renal cancer is in remission and had a few areas on the lung, of which most have been targeted via laser (today, only one is supposed to exist), diabetes, weakness of muscles and experiencing extreme fatigue (sleeping most of the day), issues with trying to get food down them on a consistent basis. Any help you can give is appreciated! Thanks everyone.

Narcotics also would get my heart racing. I had to take Halcion, Tramadol, and antihistamines at the same time to make myself sleepy.

I have been on Ambien and other sleep aides prescribed by doctors and they never mentioned it interferring with my TSH level. I had a TT due to graves disease almost 15yrs ago. Insomnia was the only symptom that never went away... Currently I am on Ambien to help me sleep, but I only take it once every seven days because it will not work if i take it more than that.

I started taking Ambien three months ago and I have started doing ome things out of the norm.

The Ativan is much more addictive than the Ambien, and you're taking it daily. Voice your concerns about this as well. Do you really need it twice every day, or can you take it just when you absolutely need it? Have you learned any relaxation techniques? If not, a CBT therapist should be able to teach you some.

I was curious, in general, has anyone noticed menopausal symptoms being more severe and earlier onset due to taking synthroid and having a hysterectomy? I have 3 sisters and we are all close in age... 53, 52, 51 and 50. I am the only one who appears to have started meno and I have had very strong symptoms. My sisters say none of them have really started yet.

I used to take Ambien, and I had great results with it for a short time. But with all medications, it eventually lost it's effectiveness, and I switched to Lunesta. Lunesta was a good alternative for me. I never had nausea with either med., but I have experienced the daytime grogginess with both. It does go away after a while, as you become adjusted to it. Unfortunatly for me, sleep medications only work for a short time. I am a true insomniac, and nothing works for long.

I started taking Ambien & Prozac in Oct 2009. I started building a resistance so my doctor prescribed for me Restoril, that didn't work so she started me on Lunesta. After I started building a resistance to the Lunesta my doctor prescribed for me Ambien CR 12.5mg. It's now March 2010 and I need 4 or more Ambien CR to sleep. I can't sleep without it!!! I haven't taken the CR 12.5mg in 24hr and I have the common addiction symptoms.

but then if you take klonopin ambien and GABA does that permanently damage your though processes

ve had some time to think things over, go back and see your doctor. You really need to have a heart to heart with your doctor and be honest with them about what your concerns are, what things are an absolute deal-breaker for you, what you're willing to compromise on, and what level of improvement you're hoping to see from medication.

Ambien will help you get some sleep so yes I would say it is good. I worked for a Dr. before and the highest dose I saw given was a total of 12mg. So if the tab was 6mg then the patient could take 2. Taking 2 10mg of ambien seems a little high to me.Maybe someone else could answer better than me. I am one of those people that ambien doesn't work. I have tried Ambien cr, Lunesta (sp?) and regular Ambien and still couldn't get any sleep.

Juvenile Rhematiod Arthritis, Osteo, Fibromyalagia, Carpal tunnel , IBS, Chronic Hepatitis C, Post tramatic stress disorder( from abuse as a child and other abuse ), High blood pressure, congestive heart failure, Possible sleep apnea, both knee needing replaced, and I am in severe pain from knees and can barely walk any more. I have trouble sleeping supposedly from he PTSD so am on ambien. which helps sometimes. I have had health problems since I was a baby. Pnemonia four times before one yr.

ve been on 10 mg for about 4 years and also 10 mg of lexipro and .50 of xanax. i ran out of xanax and ambien last week, ive had difficulty falling asleep. going cold turkey on the last 2 medications has been difficult but im managing, i want to know if this new symptom of tingleing in my hands are from the withdrawl of the xanax? i was only taking xanax for aboiut 6 months and the last 2 months it was nightly. i hope that makes sense.

Is there a relation to this and liver or kidney disease? I have this every day now -especially at night . Meds- none new but I do take atenolol rapid heart beat .Ambien. lipitor, prozac.325 mg. aspirin, daily. The finger tips bother me most. Both hands started at the same time so I doubt because of this that it would be carpal tunnel? i was tested for diabetes recently and it was negative =.there is a family history .

I TAKE LYRICA, CLONAZEPAM, TRICOR,SOMA,CYMBALTA,VIBRYD,HYFROCODON,AMBIEN,AND NAPROSYN THROU OUT THE DAY FOR MY FIBRO,AND DEPRESSION AND I STILL CRY ALOT AND HURT ALOT AND WANT TO SLEEP SO I DON;T HAVE TO THINK ABOUT ANYTHING SO I FEEL BETTER I KNOW THIS ISNN'T NORMAL BUT MY DOCTOR BUT ME ON ALL THIS AND NOW I'M WORRIED I'M A BASKET CASE.

I'm no doctor, so I definitely can't give you any medical information on Ambien, but I can relay my personal experience with it. I've been on Ambien (currently 10mg) for SEVERAL years now (5 or more). I have many chronic pain conditions, including fibroymalgia. One of the major symptoms of fibro is insomnia - which I definitely suffer from!

Does she think it's an issue? Personally,I think Ambien is a dangerous drug to be taking all the time. But,if she can't sleep and hasn't increased her dose for a year,then this is her lifestyle. I don't agree with it either but I know insomnia can be just horrible. There are other things she can take. If she wants to try it, suggest Melatonin and Valerian root. It's safe and it works for a lot of people. However,anyone on SSRI's should avoid Melatonin.

At day 19 I thought I would be completely finished with these xanax wd's but they keep coming and coming. Late last night I watched a commercial about Lunesta and they mentioned that a common side effect was new or worsening depression. That caught my attention so I began to frantically research Ambien and every article I've read lists new or worssening depression as a common side effect. I've been taking Ambien off & on for the past 2 years..usually only 1/2 a tablet.

Hello mom and welcome. Heroin and ambien are both central nervous system depressants. Taken together it is very dangerous as they both depress the respiratory and central nervous system. How old is your son? Does he live with you? How long has he been Abusing drugs for?

At least 6-7 years at a pop and can stop it with very mild consequences. Some lack of sleep and maybe some headaches and neck/back pain but really nothing. Try OTC Advil pm or something maybe.
