Hi. I understand your anxiety. However though there is increase risk of malignancy in case of background sarcoma, there is no documentation of cancer prevention in such cases. Avoidance of risk factors like smoking, radiation will have there usually health benefit and reduced cancer risk however if I keep myself in your shoes, then I would probably like to take anti-inflammatory compounds as both cancer and acidosis. However I can not give a scientific documentation to justify myself at present.
