Hi All,
I finished my inductive BCG 6 doses on 18th February. I had my pre-op assessment yesterday, before the cystoscopy with/without biopsy. This has shown anaemia, although I am taking iron tablets. I read on Google that Intravesical BCG can cause anaemia in 1-10% of cases. This anaemia seems to be iron-deficiency. Not sure, why. Could it be due to the 2 litres of fluid intake every day? I am fine otherwise and full of beans; playing golf everyday. Has anybody else experienced this? I am going to send a copy of the report to my GP, but I doubt if he is likely to be more knowledgeable than the cohort of people here in this forum.
