Hi all well here i am a newbe with cancer stage 2 isolated bladder cancer .

It took 13 months to get this far ans by pure luck from a doctor i saw in a differant location at a hospital..

I have had the treatment with the lazer ..sorry forgot. Technical  name with biopsy  four times that dis not work that lead to find out I'm on stage 2. 

Just had the 6 week course with BCG TB  into bladder

One day had to go to work in the same day told of issue  but bullied onto working so with the side effect migraine  diarrhea   abdomen  pains  just had to cope.

Its been hard feeling tired  all the time which seems to annoy the manager for not moving  at the speed he wants been call lazy ect..

Yep made mistakes who don't  with my cancer( not as serious  as others ) to the point of supervison...

information  that should of been kept with the manager he passed it to a supervisor ..wasnt pleased and ither issuse just mounted up over time

I feel being forced out ,not treated the same when  want to go home ect

Had a total.melt down at work. Totally  emotional stressed 

Does anyone have the same issues and what did they.do

  • Hi yes I’ve got bladder cancer. 2 years ago I was also missed diagnosed with kidney cancer. Which spread to lymph nodes. I’ve had BCG back last year. But sadly didn’t work. So I have both. Pain in back terrible. Feels like someone as a fist speeding in your back. Constantly. An drained all the time. Like you done a marathon. I was have kidney bladder and uterus etc. removed. An in February last mth. Surgeon decided not having it a going to give me chemotherapy. Which I haven’t yet been seen. Not had any treatment all appointments for last 5 mths. I do hope you get sorted. I wish you luck. Take care x
