William - very sorry to hear of your tumor; you are going through exactly what happened to me six weeks ago - blood in urine, CT scan revealed mass, then TURBT exactly four weeks ago. And no appetite owing to the apprehension. My only recommendation to you is NOT to wait four weeks for the TURBT. When my urologist told me about the CT scan results, he said he wanted to operate on me the following week but could not owing to other surgeries - would have to wait two weeks. I went to see a second urologist and he said he could do it in two days - so, after some due diligence on him (younger but very good, excellent med school and reputation), I went with him. Thus only one week elapsed between CT scan diagnosis and the TURBT, and even during that week I worried about the cancer spreading (which it did not). So I would encourage you to see if there is any way to get it done sooner - for your own peace of mind if nothing else. Needless to say - best of luck to you - hope everything comes out well!!
