Well, now that I do the math properly. I have been cancer free for 20 months ;) Two very good months playing with my granddaugher and greatgrandson. I have really been blessed. (I didn't know how to edit my previous post)

I am wondering how many of those that posted had high grade invasive tumor. Mine was Stage 2 high grade. Are low grade tumors also invasive and subject to an R/C??

Of course...my inquiry goes to how often high grade bladder cancer recurs in other areas as opposed to recurrence of low grade cancer.

BC diagnosed 01/2007
Cystoscopes and Miomyacin in 2007
R/C ilial conduit 04/27/2008
