@annabel55 I hope you get good results with your upcoming surgery. You definitely have to stay on top of an aggressive bladder cancer as it likes to return. My husband is 5 years into this battle and his was muscle invasive. Multiple surgeries and procedures later and he decided to have a radial cystectomy with neobladder formation as the best chance for a cure. Despite complications, he is very happy with his decision, and is still cancer free. Cancer certainly does take over your life and it's good that you have been able to get back to work. It is a good distraction. Keep us informed and healthy wishes for you.

@sepdvm thank you. Yes, hoping for a good result and the tumour not being muscle invasive. 🙏🏻
Yes, thank you. The surgeon did say that will probably return.
That’s wonderful to hear that your husband is cancer free now. It’s also nice to hear of a successful story with the radial cystectomy with neobladder formation. I was thinking the other option was better, the stoma bags. Maybe they are much of a muchness?? I actually have not delved too deep into the information yet. Just read a little bit.
Thank you for your healthy wishes and to your husband and you too.
Yes.. it’s going to be challenging. 😬
