My Naturopath had me start on 20 mg Melatonin at bedtime as soon as I got cancer dx. I'm still on it a year later and she says to stay on it. Right now (because of chemo-brain) I can't remember exactly why, but it's to fight cancer, I remember that. I still have fatigue, and it doesn't put me to sleep (I take Ambien, too). Good luck! - Carol
