Michka,
I am there with you. When my Vaginal Atrophy worsened from AI's to the point where I could no longer have a proper pap smear, I told my onc I wanted ER tx for it or forget it. I swear, his response to me was, "Vaginal Atrophy? How do you get that?" He looked it up on the computer while I sat there in the waiting room. He okayed the therapy, which I did, and I have gotten some, but not all of the function back. Not wanting to be on either drug, I stopped the AI after three years last September and the ER tx shortly thereafter.
This "head in the sand" approach on the part of medical providers has got to stop.
Hopeful
