It can be bit annoying because people people think "can't hurt to try" but there's thousand unfounded things to try, little time, no way to pick and some of them could hurt. There's no harm in listening to ideas, being expected to implement them is another thing.
a) Well founded things are roughly the things your doctor recommends. The rest is unfounded. Some unfounded things might really be worth trying if you have time and strength. Most aren't. Yet people who know you that mean well but have very limited capacity to evaluate what is worthwhile and what is not will firmly believe that the idea they are bringing you is the one that will cure your illness and the only hurdle is convincing you to apply it. That's what gets tiring.
b) In most cases there are just a few things or no things that actually might work. But there's thousands of ideas floating around of what people say might help. Ranging from "you must eat a spoonful of this spice daily" to "there's this small lab on the other site of the planet that make this expensive substance that will cure you but what they do isn't technically legal and might kill you".
I think the point here is that the OP was asking for moonshot suggestions...and people responded. Whether the person with the illness wants to hear these suggestions or not is between them and the OP. It is a sensitive area and people are all over the place in how they want to deal with it and its important to respect that.
> Nobody here is talking about unfounded things nor demanding anyone do anything.
You sure? There's people commenting "just checked google scholar" and naming random plants without citing anything.
a) Nobody here is talking about unfounded things nor demanding anyone do anything.
b) There are not thousands of things to try. In fact in most cases there will be no options since you will need to be in a clinical trial, asking a Doctor to try something unproven and unethical or need substantial resources.
