Thank you very interesting

Cancer drugs are generally very aggressive so personally I would be very cautious

Yes, let's hope it comes soon....better, longer lives for all.

The majority of cancer medications have a antiflamitory in it, as all diseases are inflammatory. They are (hopefully) fine turning these medications for lung diseases so, they won't be as strong as Cancer medications. I received this information from my Respiratory Therapist friend, who is continuing his education to be a physician. He is a wealth of knowledge!! And, I am always asking, or in a University library.....you really learn alot about your disease and much conflicting research !!

Take care, stay well and safe!!!
