Hello it’s me again,
So I posted recently that I’d had an early, low grade tiny tumour 8 years ago, frequent UTIs over the years and various pain/symptoms that were not UTI’s resulting in another cystoscopy 8 weeks ago, bit of inflammation found, 6 weeks of bladder instillations, another cystoscopy to check it’s all calmed down and WHAM……..red patches found.
So, pre op next week and biopsy on December 4th.
Worried
But meanwhile, two weeks after that last cystoscopy, I am still struggling with burning pain every time I wee and frequency.
Shouldn’t this have settled by now?
I’m going on holiday on the 16th and have never felt less like a holiday - physically and mentally- in my life.
I’m hoping the pain eases and my mind is occupied.

Hi Betty Butter, may I ask what the bladder instillations were ? I have had BCG and red patches a couple of times. Have you had a sample checked to see if there is an infection, it may be worth just letting them to have a check. I hope you get some answers, alot can change in 9 days. I hope you are sorted before your hols xx
Much love Angela x
