Wish I could get rid of my bladder !!

Having had my 12th bcg infusion last year, & suffering horrible after effects, ( dreadful spasms resulting in

trips to A & e for morphine injection, severe frequency & sleepless nights ) I had a couple of infusions of "ialuril" supposedly to calm bladder, but could not bear the insertion of catheter. It was decided to remove my bladder  (& "lady bits ") . Date was 6April 2020......wretched covid camd along, so who knows when  .

  • Oh poor you Rosieweb! I am so sorry to hear you have had to have your operation postponed because of coronavirus and that you are still waiting to have a date for it. It must be really tough for you at the moment and I hope that you will be able to have the surgery you need very soon. 

    I hope you are feeling ok at the moment and that you are managing to sleep a little better. 

    Fingers crossed that things get better soon and that your operation can be rescheduled again. 

    Best wishes,

  • Thankyou for your sympathy !! I've just had a cystoscopy today &  learned my surgery will be ...."before Christmas" so disappointed. It's not only because of , covid but being old, (72) but I'm a very young at heart 72 & am really cheesed off !!
