Well at 9am today I had the 6th of my BCG induction treatments, only side effect has been the urgency to wee. Now 7pm and things have settled down now for the check up under GA hope all is clear. Hope everyone is doing ok. Love Lynn x
Hi all,
I completed my first 6 BCG just over a month ago. My second batch o three and camera is in July.
since I ended my first 6 I have had repeated bouts of high fever ( temp, chills etc.) for about three weeks. This has reduced to normal now! It was accompanied by a persistent dry cough that has also stopped.
Trouble is I feel very, very tired. I am 80+ male who also enjoys exercising at home and going for 5 mile walks each day..
Any thoughts about how I am dealing with things would be much appreciated.
Hi PSOE, i recently finished 6 and my main side effects is fatigue, however i do on occasion think i am coming down with flu , its odd. Initially i was holding the BCG for 2 hrs , however the nurse allowed me to reduce it , if the 2 was too much. From week 3 it was probably 1hr 45 before voiding. How about you ?
Much love Angela x
