Wonderful news! And it's interesting that your uro doesn't think you need the continued maintenance BCG because you're doing so well. I don't think I've ever heard about BCG and the bladder "shrinking," though I know people do have strong reactions and can get irritation and infections. The maintenance protocol allows for greatly reduced concentrations of BCG when people suffer from strong side-effects. (I'm going to 1/3rd concentration myself this time.)
