I have used Ambien for several years now, off and on. I find it a very effective medication to help me sleep. I only read the first page of posts here and then skipped ahead to this page to post my thoughts and experiences, so forgive me if I retread something that has already been discussed. For me...

No, I do not snore - ever! That was a road block to my diagnosis some 8 years ago. The doctors kept asking me if I snored and I told them no, I didn't. My wife says she has never heard me snore.
