My husband has been diagnosed with Bladder Cancer.

thank you for the kind words and suggestion. Is it normal to wait so long for a biopsy (2 months)? Seems that could have been done with the cytoscopy. Urologist seems set on just going in and taking out what ever she can without a complete diagnosis.

No biopsy yet which we find difficult to understand.
He already has Stage 4 prostate cancer diagnosed in 2002. No surgery, no radiation - only hormone treatments. So he still has his prostate. He was not expected to live this lone - was actually given 6 months in 2002/2003. Doctors suspect this cancer is independent of the prostate cancer. He has large mass at the base of the bladder and turmors on the walls and into the prostate. This was found with scans and cystoscopy on Oct 9. He is scheduled for some kind of surgery on Nov 8 but we are not yet sure what to expect. We suspect it is the TURBT and that is when the dr will do a biopsy. We are afraid that the surgeon will just go ahead with a more invasive surgery while in there. Is this a reasonable fear???
