@sharonlsorrell1953s i am in treatment for low grade noninvasive-first once a week for six weeks. Then a scope which showed no tumors. However, he is continuing treatment for once a month for 9 months with a scope every three months. My oncologist is being extra cautious and although my cancer did not spread outside the bladder wall I am doing what he recommends. I am not risking losing my bladder (which heaven forbid ) could occur but I don’t want any regrets or woulda coulda shoulda.
