Hi,
After finding blood in her urine a month ago, my mum has just had a scan which revealed a 2cm lump in her bladder. The surgeon said it could be cancer, he commented that 2cm is small and will need to be removed so she is now waiting for her appointment time to come through.
In the meantime she is obviously very worried. More concerning is that she has recently lost weight (could be due to thyroid medication though) and over the past year she has had many unexplained symptoms, such as feeling faint and dizzy, high blood pressure spikes, tightness in her head, lumps around her groin area and swollen legs.
My question is how and when will they know if the cancer has spread and how long should she expect to wait now to have the lump in her bladder removed? Can somebody advise?
Denise
