Hello Michael_-_ and a warm welcome to Cancer Chat,
You have come to the right place to talk to others who have also been diagnosed with bladder cancer and who may have previously had the same treatment you are about to start. I hope that it will help you to talk to others here who understand exactly what you are going through at the moment. If you enter the keywords 'bladder cancer' or 'BCG' in our forum search which is located on the blue banner at the top, you will be able to see other past threads on the subject and feel free to respond to any you feel would be relevant to you.
We also have detailed information on our site on bladder cancer which you can access here. You can also read more about BCG on this page.
