BCG (Bacillus Calmette-Guérin) side effects

I too am the middle of my BCG treatments.

I had similar effects but I also have COPD so the cough and a bit of congestion could be attributed to the COPD.

One symptom I have now is I lost my appetite for eating. In the 2 weeks I lost 4 lbs. I am forcing myself to eat something nutritious everyday. But a few foods just make me gag. Like steak. So I am avoiding those few foods.

How are you doing? Have you completed the BCG treatments? Any improvement with your appetite and did you report your weight loss to your doc? Sorry for all the questions but haven’t seen a post from you and was wondering if you completed the treatments.
