- Treatments for leukemia, such as chemotherapy, opioid pain medications, steroid medications, and tricyclic antidepressants, can also cause night sweats.

- Significant weight loss is common. Some people lose weight due to a lack of appetite or because everything tastes like cardboard, making it hard to eat.

- Fatigue:
- General tiredness and fatigue are frequently reported. This can be due to anemia (low red blood cell counts), which is common in CLL.
