Hello Carl... I want to join the others in welcoming you to our forum. As Alan said, we are not doctors. We have just collectively learned a lot about this hateful disease the hard way... through our own diagnoses and sharing of that information.
My profile was much like yours as far as good health, active, taking no meds, non-smoker, etc. when I was diagnosed nearly 5 years ago. I was viewed as "the healthy" one among my other 5 siblings. I, and most of us here, can relate to your sense of shock, worry, and at times just outright fear after getting that news.
The good news of your situation is that is is Ta, low grade, and very, very treatable. Yes, recurrences are likely, especially with the Ta/T1 tumors, which is why the 3-month cystos are so important, as well as having a doctor you are confident in for your treatment and follow ups.
Please ask any questions you want here... nothing is off limits as far as bc goes. I am glad you found us.
P.S. As far as Bladder 2.2, I'm not familiar with it but I don't know of any definite study that says any supplement helps to prevent bc or recurrences. I do take a multivitamin (and other supplements) because I think it helps with overall health. The ingredient list of Bladder 2.2 is almost identical to my multivitamin, except for the fillers listed under other ingredients in 2.2. My opinion is that this is a rather expensive product aimed at BC patients but is not necessarily better than what is available otherwise. Just my 2cents...
