The severe lower leg pain you are experiencing could be a withdrawal symptom from stopping Melzap (clonazepam), a potential side effect of Stilnoct (zolpidem), or related to your diabetes and high blood pressure (such as circulation issues or neuropathy). Do not start any self-prescribed pain medications, as common painkillers can adversely affect your blood pressure and kidney function. Please contact your doctor immediately to evaluate this pain, rule out serious conditions like blood clots or nerve damage, and safely manage your medication transition.
