Hi everyone. All lab work & paperwork has been done. Once the CT Scan results are known, should get a time for the pre-surgery meeting (2-3 hours), and an actual surgery date. (RC with a neobladder). It’s been a long wait since June 22nd ….
Still encouraged by all members experiences and posts. Wishing you continued success !
All the very best to Arn and hope the surgery is a huge success, you guy’s have certainly climbed through barbed-wire to get to this stage of your journey. Myself and my wife hate the eternal waiting for results and a Urology plan, I am on my second BCG treatment tomorrow and hope it went like last week. The hospital chaplain is giving me another visit even though I am not a god person but it’s good to talk to someone about BC just like we are doing here, once again my best wishes and love to you both.

Thank you Paul ! Hopefully the CT Scan will be ‘clear’ and we can move on. Arn tolerated the 6 BCG treatments he had very well. No side effects. Felt good, just a little tired. We had so much hope this would be the answer for him. It has been very successful for others as you have read. That waiting time is so stressful ! But we are still here talking about BC and looking forward. All the best to you and your wife Paul, thank you for your reply!
