According to the article

ScienceDaily: Fighting Cancer With Aspirin?
<http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2006/10/061002215512.htm>

aspirin seems to inhibit tumor angiogenesis. The article refers to the
study

Borthwick GM, Johnson AS, Partington M, Burn J, Wilson R, Arthur HM.
Therapeutic levels of aspirin and salicylate directly inhibit a model
of angiogenesis through a Cox-independent mechanism.
FASEB J. 2006 Oct;20(12):2009-16.

Well, that's something to think about. Thanks for the tip. The study
seems to be

Shiri R, Koskimaki J, Hakkinen J, Tammela TL, Auvinen A, Hakama M.
Effect of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug use on the incidence of
erectile dysfunction.
J Urol. 2006 May;175(5):1812-5; discussion 1815-6.

I'm curious I.P., were you always sensitive to aspirin
and NSAIDs, or did the sensitivity develop later in life?

If later, can you think of any specific event that seemed
to bring it on?
