    it is always never good to hear the c word & everyone on this site supports each other to the nth degree so you do have people here that can help & walk you through things. do not be afraid to ask any questions no matter how embarassing it may seem to you or your husband. you can always type in the forum search a topic & you will get a lot of postings in that query. please do take advantage of that. if your husband is going to have bcg treatments please take vitamin d as it will help in the effectiveness of the bcg treatment. may i also suggest to get his vitamin d level checked through your g p. their is charge to it unless your doctor (g p) ticks it off on the lab form. i myself was diagnosed with bc in nov 2010 & since april of 2011 have been cancer free 1 chemo mitomycn c & 6 bcg treatments, 3 operations & many cystos. keep a positive attitude & we all want to support every bladder cancer patient and caregiver as much as we can. take care brian

    personally i had 1 chemo mitomycn c got the all clear. then had 1 round of 6 bcg treatments & have been cancer free for 13 months from the last bcg treatment & 16 months from the mitomycn c treatment. expected to do maintenance treatments but the uriologist did not think this was warrented. in my case it was less than a year but it probably will go on an individual basis. brian
