Hello Everyone
Just back from Hospital where I had my latest flexible cystoscopy. I had a different consultant today. He pointed out what looked like small white feathers in my bladder. He suggested I come back in a few weeks for a rigid cystoscopy so that the team could remove said feathers. Following my previous flexible cystoscopy I began having occasional periods of slight bleeds when I urinated. I was prescribed Finasteride 5 mg daily because my cancer nurse said I was suffering from a vascular problem in my prostate as a result of the chemotherapy and radiotherapy treatment I had when I was first diagnosed. I asked the consultant today what were his thoughts on what he discovered today. He said we will wait and see.mmmmm!
Has anyone in the Group experienced “white feathers” in their bladder or can offer an explanation? My first thought was recurrence of the cancer.
Keep safe

Hi . A bit of a worry, but these things like to keep us on our toes. I had something similar at a flexi a couple of years back. A small patch which looked like bits of flaky skin fluttering in the breeze. The doc wasn't sure and as an afterthought, should have taken a picture to discuss with colleagues, but too late. Rather than a TURBT, she booked me in for a follow up flexi in 3 weeks. It turned out to be 5 weeks, but when they went in, all was clear. No sign of the dodgy bit. A mystery, but thankfully all good. Nothing similar since. Hope it is something as innocuous for you. Best wishes.
Fingers crossed for you Garviv. Whatever feathers turn out to be at least your team are on it. Hope the date comes quick. I've had so many both flexi and rigid I know the number and name of the booking clerks. I even chat to one of them about camping holidays 
I wait a couple of weeks and then phone up and chase politely. x
Whatever is is or isn't Garviv, we shall all face it together
