BCG infusion therapy is not fun to go through but in my case it’s held off the cancer. It’s called immunotherapy and your body fights the cancer through your own immune system after you get the infusions good luck and let us know how you’re doing.

I agree @barondog. It has kept mine away since the removal in 2021. Burning, painful, and not much fun at all, but 26+ treatments later and I'm still cancer free 🙏 I'll have another cysto in September. I'm hoping if all clear, BCG is done and maybe I'll go to annual cystoscopies. Fingers crossed and I'll keep you all posted.
I do wish I had known from the beginning that it was a 3 year process, but no one told me that. Had an absolutely horrible doctor. Thank God I'm not with him anymore. I'm now at MD Anderson.
