Mary - I am so sorry to hear that you have gone through all that you have. As Liz stated, bladder cancer seems to be misdiagnosed all to frequently and in my opinion we patients go too long before receiving treatment. I had mitomycin with both of the TURBTS that I had prior to my RC/IC - bladder removal and diversion. I understood it to be common and had no issues with it. I hope that you are able to have some mental and physical relief after your appointment. I frequently suggest - when possible - to ask your medical providers to contact you to move up your appointments when there another patient cancels an appointment. The stress of not knowing can be difficult. Hopefully you will have answers soon and a plan to move forward. Please keep us posted. Linda ( moderator, author, Bladdercancer.net team member)
