Side Effects of BCG

I was diagnosed with Stage 0 High Grade cancer in July. The doctor removed 3 tumors - one in the bladder, one at the mouth of the bladder and the third in the uretha. I completed my 6 weeks of BCG about 3-1/2 weeks ago. I have not had any blood since then. I have noticed that the first sign that I need to urinate is pain in the bladder. If I must wait then the pain gets pretty intense. I also have a difficult time emptying the bladder. I usually feel that I need to go more but it is not easy to get rest out. Sometimes if I push on my bladder, which doesn't feel real good, I can get to the point where I know I am finished. Are these usual side effects and would they be going on this long after the last BCG?
