The nurse found her in bed the next morning with a whopper of a black eye! A little more than she had bargained for. Nurse ended up calling me to explain before I came to see her. She had gotten up and smacked her face probably on the sink and when back to bed. She clearly didn’t know what had happened. Ambien=bad effects.
That Ambien stuff is bad news. My MIL started using it and she noticed she was gaining weight. And she kept noticing strange messes in the kitchen. She lived by herself and kept blaming it on guests and the lady that comes and cleans the house. Everyone but herself. Finally she saw she was out of Mayonnaise after buying some two days before.

We finally figured out that she was getting up in the night and sleep walking to the kitchen and making a mayonnaise sandwich.

She was doing all sorts of weird things. We had to bring her to our house for a week to "detox" and she was having some real horrible nightmares. She was convinced one night we had locked her in the bedroom and left her there for days. We were down the hall and sleeping, we never left and it was just a few hours.

Get off that stuff ASAP. You will likely have some bad withdrawal and not sleep much, but you most likely will stop marking you shoes with pee.

And go see a medical doctor.
