Husband with UTUC originally went through all sorts of research treatments to no avail. Finally had his kidney removed. Evidently one dang tumor emerged in his bladder. We saw it yesterday at the urologist. Awaiting instructions for removal and once weekly administration of something. I took no notes, just asked if his current Keytruda infusions will continue and Dr. said yes. Just go smacked, cuz last week learned that the PET scan showed no cancer .
The roller coaster continues 🎢.
What have others used to rid bladder tumors... this one is non emergency invasive now.
