Had my 5th bcg this week,apart from the cathiter going in and out uncomfortable not painful,no side affects for me,one more to go then a 6 week rest,then a check to see where we are,so to anyone going for bcg dont be frightend,
I had 6 induction and then 3 maint. However the side effects after 9 were too much and I had to stop. I'm now on 3m flexis for the next 2 years.
What's this about gel? I never had anything like that, it was just the catheter with the lubricant that it's coated in.
