Osiag,
It may have ruled out residual cancer but who knows about the original issue? It could have been CIS, which has a high recurrence rate so you want to be on monitoring. I'm not sure how they could rule out bladder cancer given the red spot could have been CIS but was destroyed prior to pathology analysis.
I know about NMP-22. They did both cytology and NMP-22 tests on my urine. Pat can probably point you to the research on which is better.
The blue light is supposed to be much better than the white light at seeing things.
To send a PM to Pat, go to one of her posts. Under the picture it says whether a person is online or offline, then has a small box with "PM" in it, the a longer box with "Profile". Click on the PM box. It takes you to the message screen. Once you type your message in, there is small box underneath the character count box on the left hand side. Under that is a box that has the word "Send" in it. It is pretty much invisible though because it is black type on dark blue background. You'll find it though.
