The newbie sees a question. Is there a limit to BCG?

Well I did get good news today. I do have a UTI, so back on cipro. Been nearly 2 years since I had one and it sure does feel like one today. Have never missed a day without taking my cranberry supplements, so who knows what caused it.
I still am not sure if I am out of the woods quite yet as we all know a UTI can also be a sign of a tumor.
Will keep everyone posted.
Cysto will be Nov 28th or sooner.
Thanks for all the advice and your support, means so much to me.

Sorry about the new situation. But, lets not put the cart before the horse............... Yet.
But, you will go into this with eyes wide open and lots of good info in your brain.
We're hoping this is just a minor scare.

Jack the odds are in your favor that if there is a recur, then it would be low grade. Stay positive.

I am so sorry to hear of the blood clots! Let's hope that it isn't a return to bladder cancer. This "cloud" seems to be over our heads from the first day we are told that we have bladder cancer.
It sounds like you have already given this a lot of thought and know how you will proceed if the tests come back as BC.
As you have already know, you have a wealth of support in info on this site.
I will keep the faith and hope for the best.
Hang in there,
Nancy
