Question about Cups and the Ring...

I know this question has been kind of tossed out before, but the link to the answer won't work for me (it keeps coming up with an error message) so I'm hoping that someone would be able to answer. 

It's been a few years, I'm thinking about going back on HBC (Sidebar: am I the only one who read HBC the first time and thought, "Why the frack are people talking about the Hudson's Bay Company here??").  I never remember to take pills and I'm wary of the Patch because of the law suits I've read about/my girlfriends who say it falls off sometimes, so I was thinking NuvaRing.  Now that I've discovered the wonderful, revolutionizing world of shoving Anastasia Beaverhousen up into Ladytown, I like the idea.  

Anyway, I noticed on here that sometimes the cup- and ring-wearing overlap and I was wondering what experiences people have had with it.  Are the cup and the ring mutually exclusive?  Has anyone talked to a gyno that had informed opinions about both?  Does it affect the delivery of the hormones or impact the silicone of the cup?  I have an appointment with mine next week, but I thought I'd ask here in case she's never heard of the cup....
