Called Uro's office today asking that the rest of my maintenance BCG's be cut to 1/3 dose or less (as suggested by Dr. Lamm). Talked to what is called the "phone-nurse" and she said she would pass the request on to my Uro. I also said politely, that if they would not go to 1/3, that I want to cancel all future BCG-treatments, except the every 3-mo Cysto's.
If, and I say if, I hear back I will let you folks know.

Wife is an OR-Nurse and Mgr of OR's & PACU at one of our local hospitals. She cornered my Uro, a while ago, and explained my request for BCG-dose reduction. He agreed to reduce the dose and said he would talk to the "NP" that administers BCG for his office
PTL. It was either dose-reduction or NO more BCG! She said I had contacted Dr Lamm about dose reduction. My Uro said "Yea, Don's a smart guy"!
It's really tough living in a small city, where all the Uro's are out of the same office, and when the Corporation that owns our 2 hospitals, also owns the Uro's practice
Get my drift!
