Bladder Cancer Group: Introduce yourself and connect with others

Posted by Colleen Young, Connect Director @colleenyoung, May 17 3:57pm

Welcome to the Bladder Cancer support group on Mayo Clinic Connect.

This is a welcoming, safe place where you can meet people living with bladder cancer or caring for someone with bladder cancer. Let’s learn from each other and share stories about living well with cancer, coping with the challenges and offering tips.

Feel free to browse the topics, use the group search to find answers to your questions or start a new discussion.

Pull up a chair. Let’s start with introductions.

What type of bladder cancer were you diagnosed with? What treatments have you had? How are you doing?

Hello, all my procedures have been completed locally. I only discovered this forum while searching for information about BCG treatments.
I wish you well with your upcoming treatments. I'll tell you what the nurse told me during my initial treatment, she said, "This is not going to be like anything you have been imagining. It will be much easier!" And she was 100% correct.

Where are you able to get BCG locally? I am in east central SD and having trouble finding BCG locally to avoid the long drive to Mayo each week.

I could not get BCG here in Tucson, AZ. However, the Mayo clinic seems to have a reliable supply up in Pheonix and I was able to get it there. I would check out Mayo in Minnesota.
