I know it’s easy saying try not to worry but until you have all the answers try and put it out of you mind until you have all the results ,

In 2021 I was taken into hospital where a  6 cm mass was found in bladder ,I was sent home and operation was booked for 2 weeks later ,when they removed the mass it came back as cancerous

I was sent for a couple of scans and booked in for a second biopsy’s to check if they got it all and they had and it hadn’t spread anywhere,I have been having BCG treatment over 3 years and cystoscopy everything is going in right direction,I now have 3 treatments left…and so far I’m still all clear 

Hi Bivvytramp

Many thanks for replying and I am glad everything is going in the right direction for you.  It’s terrible when they tell you they have found a mass and then just send you home and say don’t worry!

may I ask what BCG treatment and cystoscopy

so glad you are still all clear.  It’s terribly scary it’s so large so I think that’s what is making me worry more x

Hi Judy , BCG is for a higher risk . Most bladder masses are superficial and can be treated easily and just require regular check ups . Let’s hope you fall into that category x Cystoscopy is a small instrument that goes into the bladder via the water pipe to look inside the bladder , it takes 2-3 minutes . Hope this helps xx
