Baba,

You need a urological consult to sort out what has been done and how to proceed. Do not delay in seeking professional assistance with your situation. Seek help sooner rather than later.

BCG treatment is most effective in high grade, non-invasive bladder cancer. It is also used when low grade, non-invasive bladder cancer returns multiple times.

I am not familiar with any of the so-called "immune boosting" therapy in Switzerland or Germany having any effect on bladder cancer.

Diagnosed in May with non invasive urethera cancer. I chose to go to Switzerland for immune boosting therapy. Can BCG treatment add to the fight of this cancer?
