    I had a cysto last Friday, all clear, just received the results of the urine test: FISH and Cytology – ALL Clear. I am 2 years and 7 months out – but since the BCG did a number on my bladder – with side effects – we are still keeping the 3 month cystos.

    Thank you everyone – Ann, now we have to ban together and give all good thoughts to Jack and Joey. Joey used to be on my schedule, but I think he was “bumped” back to June.
    I almost forgot – I also had a CT Scan and that was also clear. Let’s keep this going……………

    Great news. I had mine on Thursday and the ulcer left over from surgery in October is healing (as if all that BCG helped it). But the urine test came back positive so had to take a morning sample for a FISH test and still waiting for the results. I am thinking positive because this happened about 4 years ago as well. And then stayed clear till last fall.

    Congrats! I’m glad to have company in the “all clear” club. you and I are on almost the same schedule — I had my checkup the week before you did.

    Good news is great to hear.
