I’m doing great. I have NO pain at all. My bathroom visits have been reduced by half, and my bladder is emptying completely. I hadn’t realized how much the UTUC tumor was interfering with that aspect of my life. I’m “cautiously optimistic” about my UTUC and of course, my mind goes to that “dark place” occasionally, which is normal. 3 months ago I was given 2 choices—Jelmyto or a radical nephrectomy. I’m thankful every single day that I got 2nd and third opinions, and that I found a doctor willing to try and save my kidney. And thank you to Mayo Clinic Connect for being a place where those of us diagnosed with confusing and devastating news concerning our health can do research and get advice.
