Chemo question

erdafitinib (Balversa)- anybody taking this chemo for bladder or ureter cancer? Any side effects?

Second question- anybody else notice a cancer odor from the pelvic/groin area. I mentioned this to the Urologist- he said he hadn't heard of this. I can wash in the morning and by evening that odor starts to percolate up.

I was an embalmer for 10-12 yrs. and could tell when a cancerous body came across the table. I went to church years ago for a funeral and on the way home I mentioned to the hostess "I could smell cancer". She said the person behind me had cancer. That smell has come back., It is different than BO. I was Dx in 2013 and didn't get that odor until about 2 months ago.
