@heavyphil If I were out of options and there were a legit-but-risky treatment still in early-phase trials, yes, I'd take a chance, but if I'm going to take a big risk, I'd at least want evidence-base hope of a benefit (even if it was only a 5–10% probability).

But otherwise, why make myself even sicker and ruin my last months, just because some influencers desperate for YouTube followers have declared that drinking Chanel N° 5 (or whatever) magically cures all diseases, including cancer?

@northoftheborder Well, I am not advocating magical thinking - a la Steve Jobs who would probably still be here if he followed the advice of his doctors and did not pursue herbs and fasting for his pancreatic cancer.
But I have read numerous articles on the real world pharmaceutical applications of ivermection and how it can be used in combination with certain anti-virals and other medications to combat diverse ailments.
The problem is that its pharmacology is much more complicated than first thought (just anti- parasitic) and studies are currently being done to discover what other uses there might be for this compound. Basically, we don’t know what we don’t know about it and when the smoke clears it
might just be a de- wormer and nothing more.
But you HAVE piqued my interest and I am going to see if any research is currently being done using Chanel N5 as a cure for cancer😂
