I currently use vagifem pessaries twice a week. Would it be ok to use an oestrogen cream/gel instead?

I have had breast cancer , but was fortunate enough not to need chemo. Sadly my niece has just been diagnosed with triple negative and is about to start chemo. I really would like to give her some gifts that would be beneficial to her whilst undergoing her chemo and wondered if anybody could give me recommendations for what helped them. Thank you all so much xx

Has anyone tried omega 3 capsules to help with joint and muscle pain from anastrozole, and if so, has it helped. Thanks x

Thanks for your reply Jan. I’ll definitely try the sauna/ steam room. It really gets you down and I just feel it’s one more thing that breast cancer has done to me and I really resent it! X

I have been on anastrazole since November last year, following wide local excision, sentinel node biopsy and 20 sessions of radiotherapy. I am experiencing joint and muscle pain and stiffness especially in my legs, hips and knees. I exercise most days, either walking, running or doing an exercise class. The pain/stiffness is worse in the morning when I get up and after sitting down for any length of time. Is there anything I can take or do to help as it is really debilitating and it really gets me down as I love to be active. Many thanks.
