I completely understand being overwhelmed with the news. No one in my family has ever had bladder cancer either.
I did not seek a second opinion, first because I just went with what was suggested because I was scared and second because from everything I read my urologist was offering the recommended treatment.
I've had 2 TURBT procedures and today I will have my 5th BCG treatment at my urologists office. I cannot say enough good things about the care I've received and I trust I am in good hands.
Ask questions, like I didn't LOL. Will you have a 2nd TURBT before BCG?

I've had my 2nd TURBT. HGT1. Will be discussing BCG treatment. Can you tell us about your BCG treatments...like what side effects to expect.

I will not be having a 2nd TURBT. I start BCG on July 9th. This forum has been very helpful. @shester - are you doing all your procedures locally or are you at a Mayo facility? Wondering if local doctors recommend Mayo or you just proceed on your own. Thanks for your reply. Every one helps.
