Hi, I posted a little while back but can’t find it on the forum. I was diagnosed with BC at the end of March. 2 tumours removed April 8th and pathology results yesterday. Ta thank goodness but stage 2 so heading for 6 week chemo in to the bladder starting Tuesday. I’m very active so I was wondering what side effects I can expect and how long they last? I’m very aware that I have been extremely lucky it was caught so early as I had absolutely no symptoms whatsoever until a gross haematuria. Do these Ta cancers always bleed or was I just very lucky?

  • Hi again  . Good to know the path results are back and not too bad in the great scheme of things. Not had this treatment myself but we know it affects people in different ways. You cannot predict how you will react. Hopefully someone will be along to share experiences. Best wishes.

    Best wishes to All,   rily.

  • I hope so as I’m quite anxious about this treatment. 
    Thank you for replying

  • I’m sure they will as there are several people on here who have had or are undergoing chemo.I only had surgery so not any help to you.Most have not had too many bad side effects though so fingers crossed for you.Jane x

  • Hi Sarah 

    Now you know your Results and a plan is in place things should start to fall into place for you I had the same Diagnosis as you I am now over a year out from my diagnosis and hopefully one clear follow up cystocopy from being moved to yearly checks didn’t have any follow up bladder installations as I went straight on to surveillance as my second TURBT was completely Clear and was decided at MDT this would be my way forward who am I to argue so far so good all the best to you
