Well, that's the thing. I might trade a lifetime of pain for an increased chance of a cancer that might be treatable. Or a cancer that only ends my life earlier, but doesn't decrease the quality of life I do get to have. And, after all, having TOS certainly doesn't make you immune to other diseases - I could get cancer even without using a TOS-curing drug. Supposedly aspartame can increase your chances of cancer, but I haven't given up Diet Coke.

On the flip side, I've seen cancer absolutely destroy, and someone cancer-ridden might trade for TOS in a heartbeat. I definitely wouldn't gamble on the drug if it increased the chances of, for instance, pancreatic cancer. I suppose it comes down to whether you gamble on the devil you know or the devil you don't.

I notice you haven't cast your own vote yet, boytos. ;-)

TOS has absolutely ruined my life so I would probably take it. And deal with the CVC or CA~

People just do not understand TOS.
