    It says it’s contraindicated for people with cancer in the last three years. I wonder if that includes skin cancers.

          I've got a year and a half before I'm past it. Assuming I don't have another incidence.

            I’m a skin cancer factory. I get them removed every six months without fail.

                Yep. One of my meds increases my skin cancer risk 60x.

                And I was getting skin cancers in my 30s before transplant.

                  Wow. My FIL had stage 4 kidney cancer a decade ago, last year had a kidney transplant and since basically wears a Columbia SPF long sleeve windbreaker and wide brim hat whenever he's outside, even in the heat of summer.

                      No, stick with sunscreen. It's a more youthful look.
