Hi all
Another week of BCG done.
Week 4 some side effects are starting to get worst, but still very bearable. Monday treatment was as expected, the catheter queen used a soft catheter and was not as unpleasant as previous times.
Fatigue is starting to become a factor. Not unbearable but very noticable.
One thing I have been having is a feeling of edgyness.
tylonol on tuesday helps the onset of the minor crappy feeling.
I think better home life would take some of the edgyness away.

I hope someone about to start bcg reading this will realize the fear is much worst than how it is.
Some might have more effects from it, but it is worth it if it keeps the beast at bay
Good Night all
We are always here
P.S. Keep up with your scopes, they catch it early

Great to hear from you Rich.

Believe it or not but it is good to have some side affects from BGC. That shows its working. Thanks for updating your condition, and explaining how to go through the treatments. Most people want to hear it first hand instead of from a pamphlet.

Hello All
3rd installment of BCG yesterday. Thank God for tylanol extra strength. Made it thru work today. Starting to feel the side effects a little more, but still not bad.

I hope this helps anyone about to start BCG. The literature makes it sound much worse than it is, so far.

Keep up on your scopes. those missed appointments do come back to haunt you

Rich
