Hey @jessie1488, so sorry to hear about your Dad's bladder cancer. The good news is of all the cancers, bc is a very treatable one.
If the doctor suggested bcg or chemo wash that's definitely what he should do.
I was diagnosed 11/21 and went thru 3 years of BCG treatments. So far my cystos have been clean and clear.
Good luck and God bless your Dad through all of this.

Well they haven’t done the biopsy yet so we aren’t even sure it is cancer but the offered him a chemo wash before even doing the biopsy . I never heard of a dr wanting to do a chemo wash before even finding out if it is actually cancer
