It's just that it was so strange.....I did forget that I started taking Ambien CR a couple of nights before that happened...maybe I slept so hard that I didn't move enough during my sleep....but still I worry that it may be circulation...I just got a call back from Dr. K's nurse, she put me in for 3:20 this afternoon....Yesterday I finally went to sleep around 4p and I missed her call...Joyce, did I tell you that I had a dream about you? In my dream, you bought the house next door and I planned a party to welcome you and a bunch of our fellow KAers came...well, I decorated the pool patio and got everything ready...food, drinks, music...and then I went into my room to shower and dress...well, my legs went dead again and I couldn't get down there, I tried to see everyone but from my vantage point on the floor, I could'nt see any faces at all...it was very frustrating....

Thanks jroc...I'll add that to my Dr. K list too....I take a multi vitamin with the B complex in it but I'm not sure if that means anything because I've always told people that the best way to get your vitamins is through diet not supplements...

Michelle,
My dear friend, you should go to the doctor right away. This maybe an infection that needs treatment now!
Take care of yourself girl! We love you.

Sorry you had this scary experience. I had very similar thing happen and ended in the back of ambulance for a late night jaunt to ER knowing full well tha tit was probably an AS side effect--- what Tim correctly classified under the heading of neuropathy.
I never got a great explanation on why I got the sensation so scary that night. SO I have no great ideas to offer. Just be careful not to always assume it is AS caused and get someone to give you a medical lookover just in case.
