BCG not needed?

Had two TURBT procedures in Aug and Sept last year and was on a "wait list" for BCG therapy. Had another TURBT in January and now the urologists indicated that because of the pathology of the last, I don't need BCG or to be on a wait list. This left me confused. Can anyone confirm or shed light on his conclusion? Thank you.

  1. This article might help you to shed some light onto the shortage. It happened back in 2019 but it looks like it is flaring up again. https://bladdercancer.net/news/update-bcg-shortage If there's anything else we can do to help provide info, let us know and, as always, you are not alone!
