| Subject: | Treatment for High Stage Bladder Cancer |
I was diagnosed with blader cancer in March, 2007. Since that time I have undergone 4 TUR's. With the last TUR in August 2008, I underwent 6 weeks of BCG. At the 4 week check up after BCG treatment, there was no indication of cancer. However, at the next 3 month check, there were two new tumors. The doctor removed them in the office. The path report came back as high grade, but no muscle invasion. I can't understand why there is nothing out there to stop the growth of the cancer. I have questioned my Urologist, who assures me that this is the normal treatment options. I have not been told that I am not a candidate for addtional BCG treatments. I am concerned that I am not doing enough to stop this cancer. Has anyone else been through this?
