Follow up!

We saw the U.O.W. doctor today for the biopsy follow up on BC and Prostrate Cancer. The biopsy shows no cancer.
I go back in 3 months for a peek. We know I have been blessed.
I pray for all of you that you also will be free of this soon.
God Bless,
Jeff

Bob,
Glad your doing okay.
I went to the U.O.W Medical center last week for a 30min peek and poke.
two hours later he was done. The Bladder looked good and biopsy of the bladder showed normal cells. The time spent on me was fixing what the other Uro didn't do completly like remove more of the prostate like he should have.
So he plans on doing another Lab test on the prostrate this week.
He did tell us the tumor in the Bladder was not Tcc or agressive like the first Uro told us but Adenocarcinoma cancer that is slow to moderate this is still from the orginal lab results which I don't have faith in.
So for now it's wait and see for the results. It really matters who you see a (guy) who says Bad Bad let's remove all or a Doctor who tells you let's get all the data in first.

Jeff,
I have the neo-bladder, which means completely remove old bladder and build a new one out of section of colon. All "plumbing" is hooked up as natural - no external bags or ports. I urinate thru penis, as before.
Daytime full control came very quickly for me. Night was a little longer, but as of now (2 1/2 months after operation) I only occasionally have a little leakage at night- and even that is minimal.
Best advice I can give is get a Doctor and facility who does lot's of these procedures. I was able to get a great doctor (b. Bochner) at Sloan Kettering in NYC.

Hi Jim,
It's been almost 2 months on this roller coaster ride for me and as of today I really don't anymore than 2 months ago. So this Tuesday I'm going to the univeristy of Washington for them to see the biopsy as the local lab is confussed. I hope he can tell me something other than BAd BaD need to remove all your plumbing.
So thank you for the reply.
Jeff
