Well, five weeks after my BCG treatment, I had a cysto and they found two spots so had a TURBT and it came back high grade, lamina invasive, which is what it was before, but also suspicious for muscle invasive. So I’m on the OR schedule for March for a radical cystectomy Ileal conduit. I’m considered a BCG failure. Very aggressive. Having a PET this week to check on a pelvic node. We will see how that goes. 🙄

So sorry to hear the BCG failed. Will pray for successful surgery and recovery.
We were truly surprised that cancer recurred. My husband feels fine- no symptoms- so it’s hard to go through it again with a 50% success rate. One thing I’ve learned through all this is that, with time,support, and trust in God, one can adapt to what ever comes along.
