@northoftheborder No doubt there are specific situations when certain treatments or remedies can’t be done. (Yes, sometimes life just sucks.).

But these are general recommendations that apply to the masses. Specific situations and circumstances would have to be considered on a case by case basis……..

@brianjarvis Yes, Apalutamide is keeping me alive with stage-4 prostate cancer (yay!), but it really limits my choices with other meds. Not only can I not take NSAIDs, but if I get a severe, life-threatening case of COVID, I can't take Paxlovid or Remdesivir like most people could. All I can do is keep up my vaccinations and hope my body will be able to fight it off.

I don't know if that applies to other ARSIs as well, but we definitely face some trade-offs in our cancer journeys.
