Hi Karen,
Wow, you've been through a lot. Upper tract TCC is supposed to be very rare, yet I keep meeting women in similar circumstances as you. Maybe you should join our discussion group to ask about those chemo combinations, I see nobody on the board is responding. Gemzar is becoming the new standard, most often people are receiving Gemzar and cisplatin as first line chemos, but Taxol and Carboplatin are also being commonly used, I've heard of folks getting good results with both.
I sure hope that BCG has halted the bladder recurrences, what a drag!
All the best,
Wendy
