I hope to keep up with the maintenance treatments @mum2jj. I think it has helped to avoid issues like UTI’s etc. I think that without being on Femara the results would be much better and last longer between treatments. While many women do suffer from these issues who are not on hormonal treatment for bc, the incidence is much higher if you are. I think I read something like 40% compared to 60%.
I did discuss my issues with my oncologist but she said pessaries are not something she would want me to try unless the situation was much worse. Then she has had women who use them for short periods of time. I definitely don’t want to compromise my recurrence chances! It seems that the laser treatment is my best option. I think it has helped.
