I’m trying to get BCG treatments done as well. I’ve had 2, should be 3-4 but I’ve had 2 confirmed UTI’s now and yes it’s postponed my treatments as well. Also I have scarring in my urethra that has caused great difficulty in inserting the catheter, and causes me discomfort/ trouble with urination. I need get these treatments done as I also need to have open heart surgery for a large aneurysm… too many serious complications all at once.

@squilliam60, it is hard to deal with multiple serious conditions. Am I understanding that your oncology and cardiology team want you to complete the full course of BCG before surgery for the aneurysm?

Have you been able to clear the UTI to get your third BCG treatment?
