Hi all ive been away for a while due to work stress. And management. 

So hi all. Im going to be on my second BCG installation on 1 st August  25... never heard before  until i came back here how the after effects  from treatment. 

The first  six weeks effects about the same migraine  ,abdominal pains, more tired than normal... shame work could be better about it  diarrhea  most days eating imodum like sweets..solved  for a day then with in 2 weeks starts again plus sleeping paterns out of wack makes going to work very hard..

And weight gain on 11 stone so upsetting two meals a day Upside down 

Didnt matter what food i eat same thing happens as well as using the loo while  the 6 weeks treatments every 20 to 30 mins. Very annoying..

So this is still daunting to go through again with still have the op to she how the bladder is ,while on treatments. 

As well as mental heath such a lot to cope with..

  • Hi  . I've not had BCG so no experience of it , but is strange how we see so many differing side effects with it. Some people sail through it, some people have difficult effects while many  seem to be somewhere in the middle. I hope your next lot goes smoothly . Best wishes.

    Best wishes to All,   rily.
