Hi all, I hope you are all doing well. I haven't posted lately so thought I would give you a wee update. Had my 18th BCG yesterday and it has been a right bummer, I have been up most of the night with terrible urgency and burning when I pass urine still running to the loo lots but glad to say pain has subsided. You have my simpathy if you suffer this each time but its done now, have a CT scan December so all being well no more treatments until May 26. Love Lynn.xx
Hi Lynn. Good to know you have got through it but sorry to hear you are in some discomfort. Hopefully it will pass over the next few says. Enjoy your break and I hope all goes well with the CT. Best wishes.
Hi Lynn, SNAP ! we are at the same point, had mine on tuesday and yes I agree with you its a bummer. I still have a touch of urgency, I know it will go eventually . I have my CT scan on Dec 8th, I was supposed to have it yesterday, but i was anxious that the contrast would irritate my bladder even more, so I rebooked it, with the blessing of my CNS. Good luck with yours and I hope the side effects ease quickly. Take care Lynn xx
Much love Angela x
Thanks Angela, I really can't complain I have been very lucky with the treatments so far, I don't have a date yet for my scan going by my last one it will be late Dec. but you never know. I hope all goes well with your scan so you can enjoy a lovely Christmas and a nice long break for treatments. Love Lynn xx
