Cramping

I am new I will have a TURBT Aug 5 for a medium sized bladder tumor. My question for woman is this. I am 79 and for over a year I have had what seems to be menstrual crams. Sometimes radiating from my back. Is this a sign of bladder cancer also?

  1. Hi. I had similar cramp and pain radiating from my back too prior to diagnosis. Good luck with the TURBT. We are here to support you any time. Let us know how you get on. Laura, Moderator, BladderCancer.net

      1. Hey ! Welcome to our community. Hmm so we aren't a medical community so we can't give medical advice. However, I will say cramping is definitely a symptom many with bladder cancer face. I'd recommend mentioning it to your doctor to make sure it's not something in addition. Wishing you the best with your upcoming TURBT ! - Jada (BladderCancer.net team member)
