hi, i have had full blone bladder cancer, which needed surgery, i was very lucky, the first investitive surgery found that the cancer had penetrated the bladder wall, this ment i had to have my bladder rmoved, because i was only 55 at the time, iwas offered a neo-bladder or a stoma, i chose the neo-bladder which is a new bladder made from part of my bowel.

i dont wish to frighten you but you must get the bleeding sorted out asp, that is what i started with, ithought i was dehidrated,as the more water i drank the less the bleeding.

i am now approaching 4yrs on, i do have slight incontinance problems, but nothing icannot live with, the first year post op was the worst of my life, i remember crying alot, my surgen made it virtualy pain free. and as for your cyscoscopy, the worst part i find is letting my bladder setle down afterwards,it does get a bit tender and i do tend to leak more than usual,

i do hope that you get on ok, and that they find the problem is not as seriose as mine was, i hope by now you dr will no what is wrong with you and is staring treatment, good luke and my best wishes Terry
