Hello,
I am new and just posted on another thread, so hopefully this is not repetitive.
I've had TCC with 7 TURBT's. The last procedure was approximately 8 weeks ago, and the surgeon placed a stent in my ureter. This is very painful, just recently easing up a bit. The plan is to repeat the cystoscopy next week and remove or replace the stent.
In the past, I was treated with BCG, but had recurrences despite that. After this last procedure I was hoping to get Mitomycin, but did not. It is not clear to me why the Mitomycin was not given, wondering if it was held because of the stent placement.
These recurrences have been very stressful for me. I am raising a family, and the uncertainty of it all is frightening. Any advise or personal experiences are greatly appreciated! Thank You!
