Rick, I take it you've consulted a specialist in sleep disorders. If you haven't, then I would urge you to. You have some world-class second-to-none medical care in Boston (Mass General being one of top hospitals, period).
If you think the risk-to-reward tradeoff is worth it, then by all means give it a try. You can always stop. I'm assuming the FDA has approved this medication for your particular condition.
My own bias is that I would rather not use meds long-term. Diet and exercise and stress management can work wonders in improving your quality of life.
But I'm not your doctor.
I pray you find a solution to your predicament.
