I learned that I had a fast growing type of bladder cancer that is unrelated to my prostate cancer or my radiation. Luckily for me, it has not invaded my bladder muscle which means I can do chemo and not have to deal with bladder removal. I will have 6 sessions of chemo, one a week for six weeks. I'm not sure what type I'm getting as they said the BCG version is very difficult to obtain.

@sbassmeister Wow - still in short supply? That was the case for me during Covid.
So my urologist mixed it with Interferon; he said the antiviral boosted the effect of BCG.
I think they are using Anktiva and Keytruda now, but those are more for the invasive types.
They tried Gemcitabine first and it did not work at all. Good Luck,
Phil
