Hi jason69 and welcome to the group. It must be really frustrating for you having multiple recurrences. Hopefully the BCG has done the job and cleared it for you. We know BCG can cause bladder inflammation so hopefully that is all it is this time. Good luck with your results. We know how hard the waiting can be. Best wishes.
Hi jason69, that's great news. I had my first TURBT in April, and so new to bc. Do you mind if I ask you a question please - with the recurrences, did you have any symptoms or were they picked up in routine camera checks, thank you
hi
when they first fount it 4 years ago was when i add blood in the urine, but the 3 times it as come back i never add any symptoms was picked up on my routine camera checks many thanks
good luck hope every think goes well when you have your camera check
Great question, I'm post 6 BCG installations about to have first cyscoptotomy to see how it's gone. Trying not to guess what if, anything my bladder is trying to tell me. Think I'll just wait for the outcome rather than indulging in amatuer urology
