Zolpidem after temazepam and tramadol cessation

I previously alternated between temazepam and zolpidem for sleep.  I also take gabapentin.  Three weeks ago I stopped temazepam and tramadol.  I am taking zolpidem every night now and continue gabapentin 3x a day.  I don't crave either of the meds I quit, but I have been experiencing inability to concentrate, ringing in my ears, vomiting, blurry vision, sweating, confusion, anxiety and mood swings.  The symptoms wax and wane and I can't find a pattern.  The seem to occur as a cluster, meaning all symptoms occur together and come on suddenly.  I can't find the pattern.  I suspect withdrawal, however since I am taking zolpidem, does that rule out temazepam withdrawal?  IDK what is happening because I don't crave anything, but I feel awful.

Your best bet is to consult the prescribing doc who has examined you and knows your med history.  Really no substitute for that.
