For almost a year my dad was having problem urinating and was receiving treatment for prostitis. It wasn’t improving but he had no blood or anything so doctor wasn’t that concerned but referred him for a cystoscopy which showed a growth on his bladder.
he then had a TURBT 6 months ago and biopsy was urethelial cell cancer high grade PT2. He was advised to have chemotherapy and then an RC. Unfortunately he had some side effects and only completed 2 rounds of 4.
he had his RC 10 weeks ago and pathology results were significantly worse. T3b micropapillary variant. He has since been told that there are microscopic cells in his stomach and pelvis but no lymph nodes are affected - does this now make him stage 4? A further letter explains that he is pdl1 negative so unsuitable for immunotherapy. The lettter also says unsuitable for chemotherapy or radiotherapy. It’s almost like they’ve just abandoned him with a dear John letter. I’m so upset and confused.
