  Always think "positive".  I have just been diagnosed with BC and I am having my second surgery May 1.  I will then start BCG Therapy.  I look at my BC as an opportunity to walk closer to God.  He has been trying to get me to slow down and focus on him and well NOW I HAVE TOO!!!  Good luck and keep us posted. ~Pat

  Nice to meet you cdon63!  I appreciate you and your history.  It makes me feel better.  I see where you were diagnosed when you were 40 and now you are 49.  That in and of itself gives me hope.  The Dr. wants to treat me first with BCG.  I am having my second TURBT next week.  Seems like Dr. didn't get enough meet to make the other 3 pathology slides.  So here we go again. ...

  I am a female and can't understand this stuff.  So with the BCG, I will get sicker as the treatments go?  What should I look for.  All I have been told is that I will have fevers..... Tell me more about your reaccurences.  I am 48 non-smoker and administrator of an office.  I don't have any of the risk.......

  Ed: Thanks for responding.  I am a female and have never smoked so I don't know where this BC came from except from my God above telling me to slow down and smell the roses.  I am better today than earlier.  I am wondering what side effects and such of the BCG that I will need to watch out for.  I look forward to keeping up with folks like me.  Thanks for your kind words and wisdom.  I ...

  I don't know what my tumor size is.  I will be having the TURBT again to get more tissues.  I don't understand why I have this because I am a femail and have never smoked.  I was wondering more about side effects and if my grandchildren are allowed around......What can I expect?

  Does anyone know anything about this?  I just had this diagnosed.  I had a tumor and it was removed by TURBT.  This is really scarey stuff.  Please help.

  I had the samething.  I ended up with a CT Scan and MRI.  The CT showed a mass on my left kidney, the CT Scan didnot.  So I ended up going to Urologist and he found the tumor in my bladder.  I had a TURBT on April 5 and have no more left sided flank pain. I now have Bladder cancer.  Get yourself checked out.  See a Urologist.
