I had a Bladder cancer tumour removed in December last year followed by new tumour removed in May. Now a Ct scan has found a lesion in my right ureter. Awaiting urgent cystoscopy, uretoscopy and possible TURBT ( all at the same time). Anyone else had a similar experience

  • Hi  . Sorry to hear you have another lesion, especially after what you have been through already. No personal experience of ureter involvement, but hopefully someone with experience will be along to help. Best wishes.

    Best wishes to All,   rily.

  • Hi Jayne79

    This must be a huge shock!

    I just want to give you hope and encouragement.

    I had. 6 cm tumour removed 2 years ago, followed  by 18 months BCG treatment.

    Another very aggressive tumour appeared and I

    was advised to have my bladder removed, which also meant a hysterectomy.

    I am now 4 months over my surgery and have adjusted well to my new circumstances.

    I have surprised myself and am coping really well.

    I’m beginning to enjoy getting back to living again and wsnt you yo know there  a good life after surgery..

    Please feel free to ask me about concerns you have and I’m more than happy to help.
