Hello Elfi and thanks for posting
I am sorry to hear about your recent treatment.
I'm afraid without being directly involved in your care it is difficult to know whether having the mitomycin in your bladder for longer than an hour could have affected you. I suggest you speak with your own specialist team and see what they have to say.
The guidance suggests a period of waiting 1-2 hours before passing urine.
I am sorry on this occasion we can't be of more help. Please though do get back to us anytime. You may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline. The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.
All the best,
Naomi
