Hello All, I'm sorry I've been MIA for the last month or so. It's been a circus of the 3 ring kind. I won't go into details, but we are finally going to see the surgeon and set a date for my husband's surgery.
He had 3 malignant tumors removed in December from his bladder, with one tumor on the edge of the wall of the bladder where the urethra is.
He's been in terrible pain ever since. They finally agreed to give him an injection of lydocaine tomorrow as well. They had to take some blood tests to make sure there was no blood in his urine and there isn't.
I have my notepad with questions and I'll be taking notes as well. I dearly wish I would have gotten a hold of how serious this is a lot sooner.
Ny husband has had BC for 11 years and was able to keep it under control with cysto's and regular testing, but after this last surgery and all the pain he went through, he's finally convinced this surgery needs to be done. Poor, guy, he's so scared and worried.
What he wants me to do is just keep my mouth shut and let the "guys" do all the talking, but so far, I'm not hearing anything that has given me any kind of security that he's getting the best care. After tomorrow, I'll know a lot more, so I'll try and keep posting here.
Thanks for listening.
