Yesterday i could not log on to the site here, but I wanted to let everyone know my patho results.

I am fortuantely at stage Ta...G1.....non invasive, non agressive, pappilary cancer.....I do not need surgery or drugs, and just need to have Cystos every 3 months for a few years then every 6 months up to 4 yrs, then yearly, and hopefully I wont have too many recurrences.I fanything crops up, then BCG will be the next step, but not as of yet.

I had my urologist confirm my reports with a specialist from Johns Hopkins, so I feel that this was a good second opinion.

I am relieved and feel light as a feather, but will be vigilant!

Next stop is the roto rooter job on my prostate, which is cancer free but HUGE, so they say......I can wait for that procedure a little while longer.....I feel at age 61, i have gotten a report that is as good as it gets if i have to have bladder cancer, i would love to hear anyones feedback, and i thank everyone here for the support I have recieved....i will be here forever, to do the same for others!
