Hi everyone
Just finished my 10,11,12 bcg. I struggled through those 3 sessions. I thought my next lot were around Feb 26. I was wrong I now have a 6 month break with 2 cystoscopies booked in for Dec and March. God I'm so looking forward to these free from treatment. Hope everyone is doing okay.xx
That is such brilliant news Trish18. I'm thrilled for you x I did BCG (27 doses) finished 5 years ago and I still vividly remember the joy of the treatment holidays! I went off to Sri Lanka's national parks (think elephants and leopards in the wild) in the first 6 month break and got a labrador puppy in a later treatment holiday. Well done for getting so far. It's not easy when you experience horrible side effects. Only advice I can offer is treat yourself to doing anything which will make your heart sing, you definitely deserve it. Love Hxx
I'm sure a 6 month break is awesome for you at least you can relax a little for a while. Glad you have a nice break from it and fingers crossed on the flexis.
