    My husband just had his 6th BCG instillation on Thursday. It wasn’t so bad, he made it through all of them with very minimal side effects. Now he gets a 7 week break until his cystoscopy appointment at the end of February. I’m assuming that the doctor will schedule the first round of maintenance therapy after that. For now we will enjoy each day and hope for an all clear in 7 weeks. :)

    I’m glad to hear everything seems to be going alright. I start my 6 weeks of BCG treatment tomorrow and a little apprehensive as to what to expect. From what I gather I should have very little side effects. Best to your husband and I hope all goes well. Sincerely, wjjjcm
