I think I received a
BCG
vaccine
when I was a child in Ireland. Could this be the reason I have latent TB?

At Last I have answers and know where I am.
I will make this post brief , as I have had more than my share. This was my last BCG - I will be seen in about 10 weeks to see it it is still working, if not I will be considered for BCG again probablt. The letter I got for a Thorax CT Scan - I have found out from who'm and why. I asked my BC nurse

Some of you may remember some time last year or late Autum 2022. I was scedualled for BCG treatment after a struggle., but I was granted my wish and appointment made. This moring I got a letter with an appointment for a Thorax CT Scan - I was puzzled and wondered if my GP was sorting somthing. OUR

My Bladder Cancer Update.
As I stand now I have my LAST BCG treatment this Thursday, that will be followed in six to eight weeks with a flexy cystoscopy. I am at moment Low Grade - If my cystoscopy shows a tumour, then I will have to go in overnight to have it removed, That would not mean back to High Grade necessarily .

Fantasy Beach Garden and an Abstract Painting.
First I went to hospital today - Had BCG have two more and they it's checking with a flexy cyscoscopy about three times a year. At the moment it's clear, but can return so rest of my time, constand checking. Fantasy Beach Garden and a Floral Abstract.

Back in January I was diagnosed with problems with my spine as below. "x rays shows OA throughout loss lumbar lordosis" I posted at the time being my spine is affected, would that affect me being able to have a spinal (Epidural) when I have a Cystoscopy? I said at the time I would consult my GP and

Possible Problems With Bladder Cancer Treatment
My treatment now seems to be - Flexy Cystoscopy first - If anything is found then booked for admission to have tumour(s) removed. This is done with a procedure called TURBT and rigid cystoscopy. As a BTY - I am unsure if my BCG treatment has ended, or have I one more go. I am not allowed "general

Yes, You CAN have the Shingles Vaccine
Hi Everyone, I'm writing this just in case there is anyone out there who thinks they can't have the shingles vaccine because they are on pred. I believed this and refused the vaccine. I later found It was only true if you were on over 20mgs of pred (which I am not). Last October, a new vaccine

Neuropathy and Osteoarthritis
Hello All, I am writing on behalf of my 89 year old mom who has been struggling with severe leg and back pain. Mom had Guillaune Barre Syndrome in 2009 resulting from the flu vaccine and both knee replacements prior to that. She is diabetic and otherwise cognitively fine. Her pain causes her syncope

My Bladder Cancer Update.
My latest flexy cystoscopy showed I had no tumour in my bladder, backing up what was said in Autumn 2023 and that was a complete turn-around. Seems my BCG has worked in as far as there si no tumour growth. I still have cancer cells because I have cancer in situ (CIS) but at moment is low grade. So
