Has anyone been diagnosed with a carcinoma of the bladder probably due to long term use of oral Cyclophosphamide?

I was. It was small and needed no treatment other than removal.

I'd had pain especially on bending

then I was passing blood in my urine [like benilyn!]

I have yearly check-ups.

Hi

I don't know what my in law was taking for her temporal arteritis. I was told she was on steroid for it. 2 years later, she developed carcinoma on her face (near her eye). She ended up with a massive scar on the face. She also had to have chemotherapy after the removal.

One of her sons had thyroid cancer in his early 30s which was so horrendous. I often wondered autoimmune and cancer genes are ones and the same things...But I digress.
