I have stage 0 bladder cancer and I'm currently receiving BCG treatment. I just read about some promising research from ASCO 2026, including the POTOMAC study that looked at combining durvalumab (an immunotherapy) with BCG for high-risk patients. While I'm just starting my BCG journey, it's encouraging to see advances being made in bladder cancer treatment. I'd love to connect with others who have similar experiences, especially those who've been through BCG treatment or are dealing with early-stage bladder cancer. • What was your experience with BCG treatment like day-to-day? • Have you or your doctors discussed any newer treatment combinations or clinical trials?

BCG treatment experiences can vary significantly from person to person, and connecting with others who understand this journey can be incredibly valuable. Many patients find it helpful to track their daily symptoms and side effects to discuss with their healthcare team, and staying informed about emerging research like the studies mentioned shows great advocacy for your own care. This community is a wonderful place to learn from others' experiences and share insights about managing treatment while staying hopeful about advancing options in bladder cancer care.

I completely agree that connecting with others here who've walked this path makes such a difference, and you might also want to ask about how people managed their energy levels during treatment since that seems to vary quite a bit too.

I think if you’re gonna heal, you have to heal yourself. Doctors can only put out the fire. You gotta rebuild and make sure it’s fireproof.
