No new Bladder Tumors for once!
« on: August 14, 2021, 09:35:49 AM »
My bladder scope session found no tumors for once! We will see in 3 months and I will get bladder chemo once a month, BCG, until then. Wish me luck!  :old:

Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

I had to look up "BCG" at the Sloan-Kettering site, so here it is, for any other folks:

"...we may recommend that you receive a type of immunotherapy called bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) therapy. It is given once a week for six weeks. This therapy is designed to trigger an inflammatory response in the bladder. The reaction prevents the cancer from returning.

"To give BCG therapy, our doctors deliver inactivated tuberculosis bacteria directly into the bladder through a catheter (a small tube) placed in the urethra (the duct through which urine is transported out of the body)."

Huh.  I didn't notice the faint underlining on my screen. It was a blue-ish line on a blue-ish ground on that post (see attached).  The ground alternates between white and blue-ish with each post with the "skin" I am using. I guess it's the default skin.

Doing the attachment below, I notice the font color change to blue as well, which I didn't see on first reading.

=D Nothing like blue information on a blue background to enhance readability, eh? =D  No reflection on you, Speedy.  I don't think it rises to the level of a design defect.

So, anyhow, my bad, I guess.  (I'm not a fan of embedded links like that; I prefer to just post the URL "in the clear."  I know how to do it, it's just not my favored style.  For one thing, the hidden (embedded) URLS are useless in printouts of the text.)

So, sorry everyone.  =(

New bladder scan today. 4+ tumors, surgery scheduled for the 18th. Terri is recovering from having her ankle replaced Friday. We bury her cousin tomorrow. We were close...
