Intravesical chemotherapy.

I am due to have my 6th and final Intravesical chemotherapy therapy for bladder cancer. The symptoms of frequent and urge to pee is every hour. I have tried Phenazopyridine and Valium and neither seem to help.

Has anyone dealt with this and had any success with meds that work? Or tell me how long it takes to get back to normal?

Thanks
Mike

  1. Hi I can hear how frustrating this is for you. I am glad you have reached out to our community and I hope you hear back from our members with their personal experiences. In the meantime, I would definitely encourage you to reach out to your doctor, if you haven't done so already. Since everyone is different, your doctor knows your situation the best, and they should be able to help give you information on alternative medications and getting back to everyday life. We will be thinking of you. Jill, bladdercancer.net team
