Lesion found on bladder - biopsy done

Hi,

I have been having issues with my bladder now for years with UTI like symptoms but not reacting to anti biotics. Have had two cystoscopys before and had my third one yesterday but they found a lesion that has grown that was not there a year  ago so they have sent it off for a histology. I'm so worried that it is going to be cancer. Has anyone else been in a similar situation? 

  • Hi hayley221,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat. It's never easy waiting for results so it's understandable how you're feeling - I hope you're getting on OK.

    Some people say it helps to keep busy and distracted while waiting for results, to help keep your mind off it.

    I hope it's not too much longer for you to wait to find out more, and in the meantime if anyone here has similar experience then hopefully they'll be along soon.

    Wishing you all the best,
