After the first round of BCG and a follow up cystoscopy......I am cancer free. The doctor even did a deep biopsy on the spot where he removed the polyps previously and it was all clean and good according to the pathology report. I owe you and your group a debt of thanks on the BCG recommendation.You can use me as a reference anytime.Thank you.....so much.
The Cancerdocs oncologist who examined my case has the amazing ability to not only listen to what a patient is saying, but to hear what the patient is asking. I consider my case complex, and was deciding between two different directions, either of which could change my life. He helped me recognize the risks and benefits of both paths, and I am now comfortable with my decision.
