Happy new year to everyone on this tricky road. I have a cystoscopy tomorrow having had 12 BCG  treatments. The cystoscopy I had in October 2024 was when I saw the tumour and somehow going for another one has made the months in between telescope and I feel as if the same thing will happen tomorrow. So very weird what my mind is doing! Any words of encouragement would be really appreciated Heart️

  • Hi Joyce,Good luck tomorrow.Fingers crossed for an all clear.Love Jane x

  • Aw thank you Jane. I’m a bit of a mess today! X

  • Try not to overthink things you can't alter what will happen. It is sadly part of the journeys we are on. 

    Hoping you get an all clear this time, but we all know the dread and worry around what if's. 

    I've just at my first Epirubicin chemo today so here's hoping this one works for me, but I try not to let things Overly worry me and just try to get on with it. 

    Fingers crossed for you.

  • Thanks Simon very much. Sending back good wishes to you that the epirubicin chemo works perfectly. X

    Crossing everything for success for you

  • Yep 6 doses directly into the bladder the same as before.

  • Hi Joyce, Sending you love and lots of good wishes for tomorrow. I know how you feel I have a Cystoscopy next month and I'm also waiting for my scan results for December the wait is torture. Let us know how it goes love Lynn x

  • Aw thanks Lynn. These messages remind me I’m not alone and that others understand!  I hope everything goes well for you too. Fingers crossed Heart️

  • Hi Joyce, cant believe you got to 12 already, well done to you, it seems like a couple of months ago you first joined the group. The very best of luck with your cystoscopy. Is it a flexi or are you having an anaesthetic ? I think everyone gets the heebie geebies before a cystoscopy, its kind of reliving the shock of the first one maybe ! I still get it now almost 3 years in. Its a horrid worrying time. Sending you a huge hug.

    (I have had 18 BCG now and no recurrences at all. I have had red patches which they are obliged to biopsy , but always turned out to be nothing.) Keep in touch , hopefully you will get some sleep tonight xx

    Much love Angela x

  • Angela I just needed those words. You are so right I feel as if I am at the start again which is stupid! I was diagnosed in October 2024 but suddenly the months in between have vanished! My brain doesn’t seem to catch up that this is not as scary as then was I think. It’s a flexi so the only other one I’ve had was when I saw the tumour on the screen. Thank you for your message. Much love joyce x
