Hi I am getting my head around this. Keen to learn from others (and hopefully eventually help others) had first Turbt just had flexible cystoscopy to have stent out. Not had multi disciplinary team meeting thing yet, but specialist hinted tgat likely to have 6 week BCG treatment and possibly another turbt. 
i do two professional jobs that I love. (One 2 days a week other 3 days a week - both wanted me full time so I compromised - I am a specialist in what I do) I think the hardest part will be throttling back on work. Can you still work with BCG treatment going on? (Even if you cant 2 days a week hoping can the other 3.) 

to be honest found it hard to believe innitial diagnosis as no visible blood in urine, just noticed an increase in need to go to toilet. Village Dr told me to get it checked out. Day of turbt I went for a long hill walk with dog in the morning - then ended up in hospital 3 days after the Turbt. Now telling all my fiends to get a man MOT. 

my other wuestion is about flu and covid jabs should I get them before BCG???

Feel totally normal at the moment post stent removal in fact best nights sleep for 2 nights since stent removal. Post Turbt had frequent loo visits in the night, now normal 2 weeks after turbt. 
thanks
