Three weeks ago on April 17th, my husband announced to me that for the past 5 months he had been having intermittent bood in his urine. I almost fell to the floor when he told me because I could not believe he would wait 5 months to deal with such a serious symptom. Of course...he always has considered himself a relative to the Rock of Gibraltar. In the past three weeks since seeing a urologist, he as learned differently. The CT scan showed a 5.4 x 5.2 cm tumor, suspicious for primary neoplasm, possibly transistional cell cancer. That was the first news where I felt my knees turn to marshmellows. The second news where my knees did finally buckle me to the floor in the privacy of a restroom (away from where my husband could see) was after the urologist did a cystoscopy last Friday, and said he needed to schedule him for a TURBT this coming Thursday, May 6th. In the urologist dictation and "Plan" it states "I fully warned them of infection, bladder perforationm ect..ect." Because of the location of the tumor the urologist states he may need to partially resect the prostate. His PSA was 0.74 but the tumor upon cystoscopy appeared to grow into and almost be contiguous with the prostate. He also notes that he saw a second tumor at the dome of the bladder. I, as his wife..am petrified for him. I love him so much. I have had to do all the research on this which makes me wonder have I done enough? Did I select the right urologist? He seems very knowledgable and has been in practice for 25 yrs. My husband says he trusts him. We are in Tampa, Florida. Does anyone have any knowledge of who are the reputable and well known urologist for BC? I feel the pressure on my back...because he is not one to do his own research...and need I say, this makes it even harder. I would just die if I was not doing this correctly. I feel like his life is in my hands because if I have chosen wrong for him...I will never forgive myself. Any advice would be so greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
