Hello, I am a 74 year old female who was recently diagnosed with bladder cancer. It appears I have a very large tumor that is suspicious of urothelial cancer. I will be getting a biopsy soon to confirm this but was suspected in the mri with contrast and cystoscopy. I am very nervous about all this. I would like to hear from others who have been diagnosed with same. Thank you.

Hi, I can relate to your situation. I’m a 70 year old female & was diagnosed with HG urothelial cancer 2 years ago. The medical field has made great progress in treating this type of cancer. There are some good websites that explain the treatments and I hope you are able to ask your doctors what treatments are available to your particular situation. Be encouraged that this can be difficult to deal with but there will be brighter days ahead. I’ll be thinking of you.
