Todd's Journey

The story of my cancer journey

Had a quick appointment today with my family doctor. She is going to start to get me off the insulin since my chemo is now done, and I can back to my regular diabetes medication again. We will slowly transition off the insulin over the next few months.

The new stents seem to be working well, but my bladder is still not used to having so much urine in it, so it's causing me to go to the bathroom whenever it gets a small amount of urine in it. The only fix for this is time right now. My bladder has to get used to having urine in it, and increasing the volume before it makes me want to go to the washroom.

The stinging and burning during urination is better now, but stilll a bit bothersome. This will also take a bit of time to heal, and is normal following a cystoscopy and stent insertions.

My next big test will be tomorrow when I start my immunotherapy. Hopefully I will not have any major side effects and will have good success with the medication.

I will keep you all posted on my immunotherapy sessions.
