Toby's 3 month check up was good. She did not see anything odd with the scope in the office. The following week on Feb 6 he had the first of 3 maintenance treatments at 1/2 strength. There had been no blood for 3 months, none in the sample on the 6th.
After the treatment is's been very hard. Bleeding every single day with strings/particles that come at the end of urination not bloody urine. Blood/pain has been every time and every day since March 6. We called the urologist and they cancelled this Wed treatment (March 13). He is still bleeding, urination is frequent, pain and throbbing in the urinary track after urination. No fever. He can only go about 30 mintues between the urge to go again comes on.
They seem to think it was worse this time b/c all treatments are just different. This one is by far worse than any of the inital 6.
Should he still be bleeding 10 days out from 1/2 strength? And if the bladder showed no new growth just want is this BCG doing and eating away at? We just don't understand why half strength is so much harder and with no blood in 3 months now it's every time, every day it worries us.
