Chuck,

Glad TUBT went well. Keeping fingers crossed for the pathology report. That wait is sure a pain.

Hello Chuck... So glad you have that behind you. Sorry you are having so much discomfort but hopefully that will subside in the next day or so. Now comes waiting for the path report part, which we can all empathize with you is an anxious time. Take care and rest as much as you need to. You may see some blood (or probably all ready have) in the cath bag, but it is generally where the bladder is shedding during the healing process. If you feel the pain gets worse, or see more than what you think should be a normal amount of blood, call your doc. That probably won't happen, but I'm just mentioning it so you won't think the worst has happened.

Your post is right where it should be, and am glad you got into the forum with no problem. We knew you could do it! Was nice having you on Sunday chat. Join us anytime! Wishing you the best on Wednesday/Thursday. Please let us know how it goes.

Best wishes... Catherine

ok guys made thru the surgery just fine , had to stay over night i am home now with the cath untill i see the doc on thur. having a lot of baladder spasums (have pills to help with that) taken drugs for pain ansd i got the pain LOL... i dont normaly take pain killers but i asked for these. as long as i am sitting or laying down the pain is minimal. so looks like i stray in the bed till Thru.
shouyld hear from the patholoigset wed. i hope doc said he would call me as soon as he hears from them. he had to dig deep to get all of the tumor. he even took some pics for us to see what he did before and after. will if you need to move this post just let me know where it goes
