BCG precautions – not understanding
Hi everyone,
My husband has TURBT and BCG tomorrow for stage 0is. Please wish us luck!
I’m a bit confused around the precautions for BCG. Specifically:
– After urinating sitting down and pouring bleach, what if some small amount of urine splashed somewhere and we didn’t see it? Can the live bacteria survive on surfaces and be infective for awhile? The doctor didn’t really answer this for us.
– I am pregnant and also have a 15 month old. I’m confused how babies can receive BCG vaccines but precautions need to be taken around small amounts of urine being splashed. Why is this dangerous but receiving the vaccine isn’t?I really appreciate any wisdom you might be able to offer. I’m grateful to have found this community.
