5/29/2007 Went in for my 2 week post Cysto chat with the Doc.  He said that he found a small polyp which he burned off, no Biopsy.  Doc said, it was obviously a polyp.  Said he was surprised that he found anything, considering I was doing so well.  I asked him if it was a benign thingamajig, he said that anytime he finds a Polyp in the bladder, he is not happy, wether it was benign or not.  Says that it is  something that should not be there. (Mr sunshine).  He also said I should not worry and he also said we will keep to the 3-4 month Cysto schedule.  All and all not too bad I guess/think.

5/15/2007 Went in for my 3 to 4 month Cysto.  Doc said that he found a small Papilloma.  Told me it was small and he burned it off.  I asked if he took a Biopsy and he said that there really wasn't a need.  He said it was obvious what it was.  I asked if he meant Benign and he said yup. He also said that we will continue with the 3 month check ups.  I always found it kind of crazy that after the Cysto I am still pretty much out of it when the Dr tells me what he finds, be it good or bad.  I always seem to forget half of what he says.  I will be making a 2 week post op appointment to check

Hi My name is Todd and I am 43 years old.  I was Diagnosed with Bladder Cancer December of 2005.
I had a Stage TA Superficial Non Invasive but was a Grade 2.  This was removed and I then went through 6 weeks of BCG treatments. I was lucky that I did not have any side affects from the BCG besides a little Burning when urinating after 2 hours.
March 6 I went in for my 1st 3 month check up and the DR found a little growth which he biopsied part of and burned off the rest.  The Pathology report came back and it was benign not cancer.  
So that is good, but I am still trying to get used to the
