hi everyone, Had my post op appointment yesterday and the pathology report was inconclusive. One biopsy wasnt viable to test the other showed signs of carcinoma in situ. My urologist says that means they arent sure what it is.He says I do not need to have any chemo for this but my urine sample shows a bacterial infection so he is putting me on an antibiotic.Next appointment in 3 months. I am going to a cancer center on the 25th of march with all my paperwork, will see what happens there.thank you all for being here.

hi,
I heard from strong memorial hospital today, they have a whole team of urologists, nutritionsists and oncologists who all work together for the best solution. Will keep you informed. You guys are all great, I appreciate all your help and all the information.

You've received great advice here, as always. I need to chime in that going to a major bladder cancer center is so important. I really liked my uro also, but got a lot better, more specialized opinions and care at a comphrehensive cancer center. Best of luck and keep asking questions!
