Evening all, 

It’s been 2 weeks since BCG #18, and I’m still not getting any sleep. Last night I was up every hour for a pee…I know it’s part of the treatment but boy it’s starting to get to me…I’ve avoided all the foods and drinks that I shouldn’t be having and still a bit uncomfortable.. that I can handle… 

Any tips on getting some sleep…

today I’ve peed 22 times….

  • Hi Nigel,

    So tiring for sure. Hard to function with so little sleep.

    Sound's like you're already doing everything I can think to suggest, giving up certain drinks etc. 

    I've been there and it's horrible for sure.

    Think it's the inflammation that is causing the urgency and hopefully it will ease up soon for you...

    I think I’m just having a bad day…you know what it’s like… 

  • oh Nigel, i am sorry to hear its bad like this . I really hope it passes off quickly , coz lack of sleep is really horrible. They used to use it as a form of torture i believe in the war. I wish there was a remedy I could advise , but I think Trevor has been through it all. I am thinking of you mate 

    Much love Angela x

  • Cheers Angela, I’ll get through it…

  • Yeah, I was prescribed medication to see if it helped, it didn't lol.

    It was just time really..

    Think I warned the carpet out with all the loo trips.

    Hope you get some sleep tonight..

    Take care.
