Potential for Bladder Cancer

in Bladder Cancer #1

As a new member I wanted to understand my potential for bladder cancer. I have had both esophageal and prostate cancers within the last 6 years. I was fortunate to have a stage one esophageal cancer and treatment went well, the prostate cancer was stage three and required removal as well as radiaton and hormonal therapy.

Within the last month I had blood in my urine which led to a cystoscopy which led to the discovey of a erythematous leision on my bladder wall. My urologist wants to check this leision out again with another cystoscopy in a month and perhaps take a biopsy. With my previous cancer what are the chances I now have bladder cancer?

    Good luck

    I have a friend, her uncle was diagnosis with prostate cancer, doctor gave him hormon for a while, but he go back to his own country, doctor said he don't have cancer at all. It's quite common you feel very well but doctor say you can cancer, give you some treatment then you feel worse.
