I have bladder cancer. Dr. scopes every 3 mon. I just had this done 10 days ago.?


Question:
I have had bleeding and clots. The dr. goes thru the uterus to get to the bladder, i also have alot of pain, that i never had after other surgeries to scope. He always cauterizes clusters of tumors. Is there reason to be alarmed? I have also had kidney removed with malignant tumor a year ago. Any imput would be welcome.

Answers:

Other Answers:
That's probably a question for the doctor. God bless

wow, your junk is all messed up.. I don't have bladder cancer, but I have had that scoping done, and it does hurt and cause bleeding. However, if your doctor is nice, he will anesthetize that area with some anesthetic cream before he starts the scope. I have had it done both ways, and believe me - the numbing helps significantly. If you are still bleeding after 10 days - you need to call your doctor. It sounds like you may have a secondary bladder infections - which can happen from the scoping. Bless your heart.


I agree, your worries are best left to the professionals who are taking care of you, remember as a patient you have the right to know about your medical care and treatments.


Your doctor would not be going through your uterus to get to your bladder. It's time for you to have some anatomy information. Your doctor accesses your bladder through your Vagina and Urethra. The Urethra is connected to the bladder.

Cauterizing clusters is normal. I have had that proceedure done several times myself. Not the most comfortable proceedure, but worthwhile.

The first link I have listed below discusses the different types of bladder cancer and treatment options.

Best wishes in your treatment!
