Hi!
My husband is in hospital for other medical reasons and was recovering but we’ve just been told he has bladder cancer. They removed some of the tumour, but not all. I we don’t know the stage or any details yet but just wanted to be in touch with people going through the same thing. I had cancer diagnosed last year and joined a forum and it was so helpful in so many ways.

Hi Happyflower ,
Welcome to this friendly forum, but sorry to hear about your husband's diagnosis.
Must have been quite a shock for you both.
Plenty of experience on here, so any questions please fire away.
I was diagnosed in Dec 2022, but had symptoms so kind of expected the outcome, or at least aware of what was going on a bit.
Also sorry to hear that you have also had a cancer diagnosis
This forum definitely helped me and still does and the people on here are so lovely.
Wishing you all the best.
Trevor
Hi Happyflower,Sorry to hear about your husband.Welcome to our friendly group.I hope you will find it helpful and supportive.Once your husband has the biopsy results back you will both know what treatment is available.It’s common to have a second TURBT procedure a few weeks after the first so don’t be alarmed if this happens.Feel free to ask any questions here there is usually someone who can answer.Best wishes Jane
Thank you everyone. So glad I signed up. When we know more my questions will keep coming I’m sure
