Think your doctor is right on! There seems to be a question as to the grade....and BCG is not as effective with low grade. By doing another cystoscopy in 6 weeks, after the bladder has healed, he will get another look at the situation. It is very possible that he may want to do another TURB (biopsy). It has been shown that a second biopsy can result in a much more accurate diagnosis, since the urologist has a better idea exactly where to pay attention the second time around.
Yes, bladder cancer does tend to recur. But six weeks will not affect either the progression or the chance of recurrence. You have time to get the diagnosis and treatment right.
Sorry, I am not familiar with European centers. Maybe someone else will be.
Good luck to you
