    My husband had good news today. No visible growth was observed during his Cystoscopy. He will have another Cystoscopy in about three months.

    We had some concerns about mild burning while voiding. The BC specialist reassured us this discomfort is not uncommon considering what the bladder has been through (CIS, cysto’s, three TURBTS and 12 BCG treatments.

    While it’s not my husband’s favorite reason to visit Baltimore, I’ll look forward to the return to JHU and hopefully another good report.

    Husband’s journey:
    01/2015 1st cystoscopy
    03&04/2015 TURBTs-CIS
    07/2015 Finished BCGx6
    08/2015 biopsy-BENIGN!
    10/2015 Finished BCGx3
    12/2015 Cysto, redness
    01/2016 TURBT, Benign
    04/2016 Cysto
    05/2016 Finished BCGx3
    07&11/2016 Cysto’s
    1/2017 Finished BCGx3
    2/2017 Cysto, redness
    3/2017 TURBT, Cysto due 9/2017
