bladder cancer

Hi,

So I've had non-invasion muscle-bladder cancer for nearly 2 years. Keeps coming back. Had surgery twice and chemo once. Cancer is gone again. So it will probably be back soon. How many more surgeries and chemo will they give me before it's time to take the bladder out, or will they give me more surgeries, maybe radiotherapy, or drugs before they consider taking it out?

  • Hello Jim1976,

    Your medical team will weigh up the options before making a decision, so they'll be the best people to speak to. There are some general details on the options available here,  but do speak to your consultant. We have a team of cancer nurses available on the freephone 0808 800 4040. Lines are open from Monday to Friday between 9am and 5pm.

    I hope this is helps,
