Hi everyone. I was newly diagnosed with hi grade aggressive bladder cancer in August of 2022. It was noninvasive. I had a TURP removal of the tumor followed by 6 weeks of BCG treatments. Then a cystoscopy and another small cancerous bladder tumor. March 3, 2023 had surgery to remove the 2nd smaller tumor which was still noninvasive. I am currently waiting to undergo a 2nd round of BCG. If cancer returns Doctor wants me to go to Dana Farber in Boston for further treatment. I am an 80 year old female and never saw any of this coming my way. It was an incidental finding on a CT Scan for diverticulitis initially. I had no bladder symptoms. So that is where I am right now. Any comments I would greatly appreciate. My name is Leslee.

Hang in there. Monday I have biopsy surgery scheduled for recurrance. They do not know where cells are coming from. Hoping for a clear path ahead.
