Hi All,
I had a follow up cystoscopy today 2 months after my first surgery - originally I was supposed to wait another month but had some bleeding a month ago so they moved up the appointment. Everything looked fine which is good, but the area where the tumor was removed was still red/still in the healing process. Definitely looked gross on the TV screen, ha. Doctor said sometimes it takes longer for the area to heal with mitomycin (I had 1 treatment right after surgery, but no subsequent chemo washes).
Has anyone else had this where it visually takes a long time for the bladder to heal and the area still looks weird on subsequent cystoscopes? Any thoughts?
For reference, I'm 25 years old female who had a non invasive papillary tumor.
Thanks!
