84 year old dxed with in situ bladder cancer in 2018. Had two BCG Failures. Currently dealing with my third
hemorhagic cystitis episode post dual chemotherapy regimen . I believe I dont have a GAG layer any more.
Latest scope is good. No bad cells anymore. How does one prevent recurrent bleeds?

Are you still on chemotherapy? Has your symptom management nurse offered any advice?
