Hi All. How is everyone doing? Anyone stuck indoors? Remember, this is a support group, and things don't always need to be medical. There is usually someone here if you just want a chat, a moan, or any stories. My wife has been stocking up on paint, so guess what I will be doing in the near future. Best wishes.
Seen a couple of these today between the downpours.
Me too rily. That's true A, we always point & shout like we've never seen them before 
. I've been to the seaside & staying in an apartment overlooking the sea, it's been so peaceful & interesting watching the changing skies. Can you believe every time we got by a pub it rained so we had to rush in save getting wet? 
Met up with family too & had a good time.
Nurse rang me yesterday, she'd offered me more Epirubicin & I said that I'd think about it before my holiday. I've had a good think & decided against it this time. I'm so grateful that it's been offered but after telling me I had 9 months grace before the next cysto, & then I get a call asking this I was pretty devastated. I just don't think that me & the catheter get on very well, my urologist didn't catheterise me for my last TURBT & I wonder if this was why I had no pain. The very though of 2 months of that pain & sitting on the toilet just filled me with horror!
Hi Blanket, your holiday sounds great. Shame about the wet weather forcing you into the pub, but needs must 
I don't generally get much pain after catheters but I know the BCG nurses deliberately use the thinest they have. They never hurt at all. I definitely notice the difference when they put the camera one in at flexi. It feels sharp when initially being inserted and can leave me a bit sore the following day. Kind of bruised. Was your last TURBT all clear or low grade? If so I think I would also hold back from further chemo. You can always save it to be the cavalry if you get an unfavourable cysto. Enjoy your 9 months of freedom!
Tonight’s sky
That's a lovely photo.
