Hi my dad has been diagnosed with grade 3 bladder cancer muscle invasive, was told by CT scan no spread which we felt positive about , today we went for an appointment to now be told they’ve looked at his scan again in mdt and are saying lymph nodes around pelvis look abnormal & now he has to have a pet scan to double check before they say he can have the op for bladder removal, this has hit me for 6 I’m so scared , my dad is acting brave but I feel like we’ve been put back to square one after feeling so hopeful going into the appointment today , thought he be getting his date for surgery instead now we being told something completely different to what we were originally told . Don’t help my dad was fobbed off for 6 months by the gp being told was nothing to worry about even though I said over and over I was concerned it was cancer, just need to open up I think , I’m holding so much in & I’m scared :(
Hi Owen777 . Sorry to hear the news you didn't want to hear. It looks like a setback, but at least they have identified the problem and hopefully they will be able to resolve things going forward. Best wishes.
