Stage refers to how invasive the tumor/tumors are..Grade determines how aggressive they are.

Do you have a copy of her pathological report? All the info should be in there. Where are you located?

Is there a difference between Stage 3 and Grade 3? I can't find that on line?

kimbob,

depending on what she has done...i'm assuming if it is Stage 3 she is going to need chemo which is usually done pre-op. It's not Grade 3 is it instead of Stage 3?

Hello
My fiancée was just diagnosed with “Stage 3 Invasive Urothelial Cancer, High Grade” and she doesn’t have insurance but I do. I’ve been reading your sight for the last 3 days. I think I understand about the hospital stay – what about when she comes home – I have to start making a plan so she gets her prescriptions.
Does anybody have an idea about how many scripts we are looking at or other expenses?
