6 year cysto good, cytology good, CT scan Questioa

Had my annual physical in December with my GP and my urine showed inflammation, bacteria and trace of blood. Had urine test redone no inflammation, bacteria or blood.

Decided to move my annual cysto up to February which is over 6 years from date of dx and 6 years from first possible recurrence. Bladder look real good, could still see scaring and cytology showed no cancer cells but acute inflamation.

Decided to have CT urography scan and bladder looks good however close to the scarring where my initial tumor was in the very low end of the ureter there is a thickening of the ureter wall. Uro cannot tell from CT urogram if scarring or new lesion. Thickening has not impacted kidney function.

Scheduled for look and biopsy into the left ureter on the 13th. Was told and research only 2-4% change of spreading from bladder to urerter, very rare. Hopefully I am not in that percentage. If tumor hope for low grade.
