BCG Efficacy?
Hello-
My father was diagnosed back in March of 2019 with T1G3 bladder cancer and after 3 TURBts underwent his first cycle of BCG, cystoscopy was in the clear in October and now going through another round. I am in constant fear for his health. He now has neuropathy and swelling in his leg- is this a BCG side effect? Also I have read articles that to eliminate risk a RC is the way to go. His doctor at Stanford thinks an RC would be overly aggressive based on diagnosis?
Thoughts on BCG efficacy and whether Anyone thinks it’s unreasonable to consider radical cystectomy? In reading message boards it appears that high grade always comes back even after BCG!
Thank you!
