What were your symptoms of Bladder cancer? Scared I have it.

The ultra sound techs told me my bladder looks very normal in Jan. I haven’t had gross hematuria except for a very tiny blood clot or two. I have no bacteria but will ask for a cytology. I’m 22.
I’m sorry you got diagnosed but I’m pleased to see you’re doing well. Did your doctor happen to mention the most common stage of bladder cancer when it’s found and how long it takes them to grow depending?

You are young and probably just fine but any hematuria without infection deserves a look-see just for peace of mind. I’m 78 and if I have non muscle invasive, which is probably likely for first diagnosis, then I will have weekly treatments for six weeks and constant follow up. Urothelial is the most common type.
I wish you the best and it’s good to be your own advocate.
