Biologicals for Arthritis delaying chemo for bladder cancer

Hi DJ1711 . Not come across anyone in a similar situation to you on here regarding biological drugs. Your urology team will take everything in to consideration when deciding on treatment. Best wishes.

Thanks Rily, my urology team have beenvgreat and suggested chemo solutions but my Rheumatologist has serious medical concerns as neither have dealt with this situation before. Its now 6,wks since the recommend chemo should have started. Any suggestions would help me as i am just in limbo and the tumour could be growing back. 

hi DJ1711 . We know there are delays with waiting lists but it would never do any harm to give them a ring and ask if you are on the list. have you been allocated a CNS who would always be the first go to? Do you know what type of chemo you will be having. Intravenous (in to the veins) or directly in to the bladder? Best wishes.

yes i know they want mitomycin into my bladder. They urology and my mcmillan nurse have been briliant but they never dealt with a biological. They have gone to three major hospitals for advise and none have been any to help my Rheumatologist to make a decision.  i cant believe i am the only person in my situation.
