Doug has been running a fever off and on for 3 weeks now...I believe as a result of BCG. I thought it was going down, but it was 101 last night. Hopefully, he will feel better soon.

Ross,
Dr Lamm told me you can cut all the way down to 1%. Even at 1/10% I had terrible response.

Al,

Can't imagine who it would be offensive to.

I'd be thinking similarly in your situation. Let us know how it goes and what they say.

Sometimes it can be a matter of insurance company approval so you want to get a doctor that pushes for the treatment plan and why it is needed.

Thanks Mike.

Go to Shands on the 13th to meet with the surgeon and a poke and peek. I will be telling him that me and BCG are through. Today I feel like someone repeatedly punched me in both kidneys to the point I can't take a deep breath. The only activity I've done is watch my wife do all the work. That sucks.

If 25% of T1 is under staged
If Repeated numerous High grade tumors have a 50% chance to become muscle invasive
If 4 TURBT during the last 9 months is not enough

Then End if and take the darn thing out.

Sorry if this rant is offensive but I been having a bad 3 weeks.
