Dental work scheduled

Spoke to the urologist yesterday and he sees no contraindication. Yesterdays' #4 went pretty well. I have been checking around and the flu seems to be what I am dealing with right now not any side effects of BCG.
I think I will forge ahead unless something unforeseen should crop up. It has been two months since I could bite into a good sandwich and I think the constant state of dental concerns will be good to have gotten out of the way.
Thank you for you advice. Happy holidays.

I'd probably opt to wait a little longer so that I would feel better by the time I was having the oral surgery, but that's just me. I guess the other way of looking at this is to get all the discomfort over at once. I would rather not be trying to figure out if something that was going on was a bcg side effect or something potentially caused by the surgery. Is your urologist concerned about a procedure so soon after bcg?

I am scheduled to have all my lower teeth extracted and implants done three days after my last of six BCG treatments. I have my fourth one tomorrow. The last week or so I have felt tired and slightly lightheaded. Am I taking too much on to have this dental work. I am 52 having been diagnosed with BC in May, 2 TURB June and Oct and biopsies done last month.
Any advice is greatly appreciated.
