How long can you live with bladder cancer without treatment?

While survival timelines vary greatly from person to person based on many individual factors that only medical professionals can assess, these feelings about treatment decisions are completely understandable given past experiences with loved ones. Many community members have faced similar difficult choices about balancing quality of life with treatment options, and there's no single right answer that works for everyone. Consider discussing all concerns openly with the medical team, as they may have insights about newer approaches or supportive care options that could help inform this personal decision.

Oncologist or urologist wants take bladder? My urologist wanted bladder out Stage 3 Oncologist treatment with chemo and surgery last resort . Was a Ta3 tumor, after 3 chemo treatments it's now a ta2 and shrinking, plus it's falling apart

Mentioned by the oncologist and from what I've read that is the usual route they take for BC. Also take lymph nodes and anything surrounding the bladder out. No chemo for me. I'm praying that God heals me but I won't do chemo. I've seen too many family members go through it suffered for what they prayed would work and it didnt.

The great news is that C has not spread to the bones. I'm so thankful for that.
