Hi all, My husband had a stage 3 TB in 2021 and was treat at The Christie with Brachytherapy and external radiation to the nodes. He had at that point no nodes involved or spread. Pet scan was clear.
He has now just been diagnosed with bladder cancer and in for surgery later this month whilst prostate appears well under control.
Has anyone else had similar? The Christie say they know nothing of any relationship between the treatment and this cancer and hence it is not related.
My husband has never smoked and never worked with chemicals ( high indicators for bladder cancer).
Not saying we would have made any different choices as to treatment but would be interested to hear anybody's views, findings, opinions. Thank you.
P.S Hi to anyone on this forum who may remember me or my hubby at the Newcastle Maggies. Hope you are all doing well.
Hello Wispmydog A warm welcome to the online Community from me. I am so sorry to read of your husband's issues.
We do have some Community members with both Prostate & Bladder cancer and I was just about to post a link to it and my friend Alwayshope has already posted this above (I thought she was on "holiday") so thanks for that.
We also have a Bladder cancer forum and If you click on the link I have provided you will find loads of people there on a bladder cancer journey - you can also join this forum.
If I can do anything else for you please do get back to me.
On another note I don't have a Shetland Sheepdog but I do have a 16 year old Border Collie and he's frightened of sheep!!
Best wishes - Brian.
