Members shared strategies for managing sleep difficulties with CLL, with the most recommended approaches being magnesium glycinate supplements, low-dose melatonin, and avoiding caffeine after noon. Several members emphasized good sleep hygiene practices such as keeping the bedroom cool and dark, limiting screen time before bed, taking a warm shower, and staying active during the day to use up energy. A recurring theme was the importance of trial and error to find what works best, with members cautioning against relying solely on over-the-counter sleep aids without researching potential long-term side effects.

I find Melatonin works best for me. I use the fast dissolve 10 mg ones. They work great!
