I have finished my 6 BCG treatments last Tuesday, April 15th. Have not had any side effects. I don't know if that is good or bad but I guess I will take it as a positive since my Urologist every week was so happy to hear I had no side effects at all.
On July 13th she is going to do a cystoscopy and if my bladder looks good, the next day July 14th my 3 BCG treatments will start.
It does make me feel nervous though with 3 months no check up but I guess I have to enjoy everything and will do my best to do that.

I am currently getting my third of six BCG treatments. I don't have many side effects except a huge lack of appetite and some unusual moods. Anyone experience this?
