Just went in for what was supposed to be my 3rd mitomycin treatment - I was to get six of these treatments in place of the remaining two of the six scheduled BCG treatments that were halted after four of them due to the shortage. Good news upon arrival at urology office, they had received four BCG doses that had been on back-order. They allocated 2 of them for me, and I received my 5th dose and will get the final dose (of this round, at least) next week. So, it's been 9 straight weeks of treatment following the 2 TURB's. It has certainly been painful, uncomfortable and stressful. Despite it all, I am very grateful for my care and thankful that this type of therapy is available and has proven so successful in keeping the cancer from returning. I was diagnosed with stage one papillary carcinoma of the bladder this past June. They have scheduled a follow up cystoscopy for mid-December. For now, and a day at a time, I remain cancer-free unless someone tells me differently.
