Hello I'm new to this forum. I was diagnosed with non invasive bladder cancer four years ago at the age of 62.
Since then I have had 4 TURBT procedures and two six week courses of mitomycin and it has still returned. The hospital have been in touch and were suggesting removing my bladder. This was a complete shock and has knocked me sideways with fear.
After telling the consultant I don't feel ready to make a decision of that magnitude he has come back to me and said it may be better to leave it and do another cystoscopy in two months time and if I have a further reoccurrence to do another cystoscopy under a blue light followed by bcg therap which I haven't had before.
My question is does this seem the normal way to proceed as I'm in total panic and what can I expect from bcg.
Regards Stephen
