Afternoon all,
had BCG #14 today at 9am
held it until 11ish…
extremely uncomfortable to the point where I was walking around with a cold then hot flannel on my private parts…couldn’t sit down… this went on for around an hour…trying to pee with a little dribble coming out….a very rough hour…
12.15 first sign of flushing working…still uncomfortable
12.30 sensitivity eased off, im able to sit down, no more flannel ( could be the pain killers)
13.00 first proper pee…loads of it mixed in with some blood…( to be expected)
since 11.am I’ve drank 5 pints of either water or lemon barley water…
feel a bit nauseous now but I’ll take that over the sensitivity…. One to go next week then a nice six month break…
love to all Nigel xx
so looking back on it now…not as bad as #12 but worse than #13….
I'm good thx, phone call with the consultant tomorrow just to discuss the ultrasound I had a short while ago.
BCG 19/20/21 is supposed too start this Month, but going to be delayed until the inflammation eases up. Happy too wait for sure, although still not 100% if I'll carry on at all....
All good fun though right lol.
Take care.
Trevor
oh , well done Nigel, sounds like its been abit of a rough one today. Hopefully you will get a good nights sleep and the side effects will have gone by tomorrow. Try not to worry about them my friend, it does ramp up a bit the more you do. you have done brilliantly though Nigel. snuggle up to Leo & mrs nigel and have a netflix night. sending you a hug
Much love Angela x
