BCG First Treatment

I will have my FIRST treatment of BCG this week.

Had my reTUR (second all together) three weeks ago. Overall, I feel okay but urination still seems to be a bother. The sense of urgency comes quickly and I have to pee right away. Then I’m fine for the time-being.

I’m worried that I won’t be able to hold it long enough. Any suggestions (walking around, lying down, etc)? I do have a two hour drive home, but will I make it!

How many people feel sick afterwards and for how long?

  1. Hi I am so glad you reached out. I can understand your concerns with your upcoming treatment. While I hope our community members respond with their personal experiences and suggestions, I would definitely encourage you to reach out to your doctor with your concerns, if you haven't done so already. They should hopefully have some suggestions as well for your drive home. We will be thinking of you and please keep us posted with how you are doing. Jill, bladdercancer.net team
