Hi
Please see my about profile for some background.
I'm new to this group and had a TURBT in September 2025 and awaiting first follow up cystoscopy in January. It was grade 2/low grade papillary urothelial carcinoma pTa. It hadn't got into the muscle layer of the bladder
I have the complication that I have been on prostate cancer active surveillance for over 7 years now and am aged 64. This may need a procedure in 2026.
I am wondering what my journey may be like with bladder cancer and am interested to hear others stories.
All the best, Nigel
Hi Nige, sorry that you’re here but welcome to this friendly group..
I had non muscle invasive tumour in April 24, I’ve gone down the BCG route… the first 12 were very straight forward with not many side effects. 13-15 have been a different story though.. very sore when peeing…others will have there own journey to tell you…ask any questions, good luck on your journey…
Nigel
