Hubby has bladder cancer, he’s really level headed about it. I, on the other hand (his wife) am struggling. He has to see the oncologist next week to start 4 rounds of chemo,.
what he is expecting is a radical cystectomy.
Any advice would be welcomed.
Hi Isthisforreal and a welcome from me. We understand how loved ones are just as affected with a cancer diagnosis as the person themselves. I had 6 weeks of neoadjuvant chemo and tolerated it quite well without any side effects. The usual drugs used for BC are gemcitabine and Cisplatin (Gem/Cis) or similar. Not as bad as some drugs used for other cancers. I went a different route to removal but many here have had RC and will be able to help with that if it comes to it. Lots of varying experiences here so feel free to ask any questions. Best wishes.
