Radical Cystectomy: Would like to hear the experiences of others

@sepdvm Welcome back to Mayo Connect. I’m hoping that some members who have had experience with neobladder will see your post and respond. While we wait, i found this video by a Mayo surgeon that may be helpful.
Also, if you go to the bottom of this page (where it turns blue), on the left side you will see MayoClinic.org. That is the Mayo Clinic website. Put ‘neobladder’ in the search box, and lots of different choices of articles will come up.

And how are you doing?

@sepdvm i totally forgot to say that when i was working as a nurse, i worked on a urology unit. That was in the earlier days of the neobladder so I don’t know all the improvements, but i do know the patients were very happy with the results! I hope it will be the same for your husband. Becky

I am currently stable with metastatic squamous cell carcinoma. On Cemiplimab immunotherapy for the last 9 months which is shrinking the latest metastasis to my kidney. I feel pretty good, just tired from the treatment. Much more concerned about my husband's more active cancer right now. Having been a Mayo Rochester patient for 9 years, I have read the Mayo articles on neobladder but had not seen the video. Thank you. Always nice to get a patient's viewpoint on these things tho.
