    Lago! For someone like me starting on their journey, you are such an inspiration. I hope you are doing something fantastic to celebrate. (I will be enjoying a small glass of moscato in your honor.)

    Lago, I'm so excited for you. You were one of the first ones to calm my fears when I was first diagnosed. For that, I'm extremely grateful. You're such an inspiration. Go celebrate!!

    Thanks everyone.

    Kthielen my MO only does scans if you have symptoms. She doesn't do tumor markers (if that's what you mean by blood tests) because they are unreliable.

  • Chemo three tomorrow and appt with urologist Thursday. MO not happy with the bladder infections I keep getting. Nervous about this my sister in laws boyfriend just got diagnosed with aggressive bladder cancer yesterday and his prognosis is not good. My mind is running anyway with "what ifs...."

    Congratulations Lago!

    Such wonderful news... Makes me teary eyed...

    Do you get to throw away the effin lifesaving AI's now?

  • OY, Gretagirl. UIs are the worst! I'm getting an MRI tomorrow to check my "thing on the hip." It shows up on PET scans but not CT scans. If it can be located via MRI, we're going to biopsy it. Big week for both of us!

    ashla next April will make 5 years on ESD. My oncologist had more than hinted she wants me to stay on it for 5 more years. She considers me high risk due to tumor size. I will need to see some numbers. Will be seeing her at the end of October.

    Gretagirl, I can't remember what thread I read this on but someone else posted about difficulty with bladder infections. She had some testing done and had some "burning" on the inside of her bladder from chemo. She had to increase her fluid intake especially during and after chemo infusions. Hope this helps. Try not to worry.

    Congrats Lago!

    I had UTIs during chemo and for a bit after - totally from the soft tissue irritation caused by the chemo drugs. Once I was PFC for several weeks, no more problems. Maybe add some cranberry juice to your hydration.

  • Congratulations Lago! So happy for you!

    Five years you struggled,

    With chemo and surgeries;

    Time was not wasted!

    ~~~~♡~~~~

    For UTI, I used Azo UTI for pain and took cranberry pills. The pills stopped the Pain fast. The cranberry seemed to keep it from coming back. If anyone has trouble with yeast, the AZO yeast pills worked wonders for me. It's hard to believe they work so well. At least they did for they didn't clear it up n two days I went to the drfor antibiotic.
