Hi i  have just found out i have stage 4, grade 3 muscle invasive bladder cancer that has invaded my uterus and theres a few enlarged lymh nodes, this explains the excruciating pain ive had for months in my pelvic area. i was originally told it was stage 2 and i would be having chemo then bladder removal, now im not having chemo they want to just go straight to surgery to remove bladder, uterus, everything out like full hystarectomy, and some lymph nodes i think. i have an appointment friday to talk in more detail and about the surgery, but also i have had severe back ache for 3 days where i cant sit, stand or walk im practically crawling to the bathroom i thought it might be sciatica is ive been in bed a lot in a slouchy position. but now im thinking could it be to do with the cancer maybe has invaded my lymph nodes in my back or could it be my kidneys.
