Thumbs Down Details on the cancer

It goes like this. I fell down – go figure. While being examined the cancer was found. I have been told that as cancer goes it is a better one to have. Oh boy.

I get an infusion once a week for 6 weeks into my bladder. What is injected is a virus. Now for a TMI. The injection I get is in my bladder. They do not use a needle they use the little hole. (icky icky icky shiver and shake)

I have had 3 of 6 injections. My fourth is tomorrow. Icky icky icky. All in all its not that bad.

What gets me is that when I go to the bathroom I am to put 5 cups of bleach in the toilet for 15 minutes before I flush. I mean come on if I am to do that when I use the bathroom just what is it doing to me. Oh well. And this may have been from the Cytoxin (chemo) I did for the MS.

Oh well when they removed the tumor they believe they got everything. So all in all I guess I am OK.

Peace friends and remember do not loose your smile.

John
I am glad to hear the tumor has been removed that certainly is a positive. Your injections sound icky as stated. But you are over the hump on those and can see and end. The bleach thing is wild, have you asked the purpose of that? You may be on as to the reason then again it doesn't hurt to ask questions.

I hope you are feeling as good as possible. You attitude seems to be a good one. I will continue to send good healthy thoughts your way.
