Hello all,
BCG #12 done….im not gonna lie the last two have been a nightmare…today I managed to hold on for the two hours and drank plenty while I was waiting.
come the two hours I sat on the loo at the tiniest of dribble came out, the sensitivity was overwhelming, for 3 hours I couldn’t sit down nd just had to stand up..I was forcing the wee to come out….finally the flood gates have opened, I can sit down down, still sensitive when I pee but bearable…. Im so glad that is over for the day..
Flexi in June,
MRI for prostate next month I think along with bloods.
CT for kidney in September.
love to you all, I hope your all well…
im gonna make the most of this break now, time to lose a bit of weight and start running again…
Well done Phil
I know exactly what you have been through. I have just finished BCG 10,11, 12 and although we know what to expect it doesn't make it any easier. I had a similar experience as you with session 10 where despite drinking as advised to flush it out, it just would not flow and I was in agony for hours until it finally happened.. and now, I am making the most of the two months break before the next flexi.
Take care
Frank
