What were your symptoms of Bladder cancer? Scared I have it.

Posted by nihssa12 @nihssa12, Sep 30, 2022

Two years ago I started to have pelvic pain. Many ultrasounds later I dragged on by my gyneo who eventually changed her mind and sent me to urology. I’ve been peeing blood clots and have micro hematuria. Also been peeing mucus, white and black sedement. I still have pelvic pain.

Going to finally get a urinary and kidney ultrasound and a cystoscope come November.

I honestly am terrified and feel like I already have cancer and that it’s too late for me. That I’m destined to die.

Any stories or reassuring testimonies?

I’m a male. I had zero symptoms. It was discovered during a routine visit when microscopic trace blood was in my urine analysis. I’m 5 years in. I just went through BCG, success so far. Don’t give up, do your research. Pray.

Hi my name is Pete. I had prostate cancer and had it removed. I now have low grade cancer in my bladder. In 3 weeks I will have camera scope done to see how the cancer is in and if it has stable or got larger. Prostate cancer runs on my mom's side of the family.
