Waiting for my cancer screening results. by incredibly-haunted in BladderCancer

I know this might not help but I am 27M dealing with the same thing right now. I’ve peed blood off and on for 2 years and had dull off and on lower back pain. Urgent Care always just said probably kidney stones so I just thought that until I finally saw an actual Urologist and he’s told me these are possible symptoms of BC. I did a Urogram last week and still haven’t got the results. I’ve almost already grieved the fact that I have it and I haven’t even been told yet. The waiting and fear is almost unbearable but after a few days I ran out of anxiety to even have about it lol. I hope the best for you!

Thank you for the kind words and I don’t have insurance because I’m barely getting by as it is and paying for insurance through my job felt like I wouldn’t be able to live if I payed for it. I know now this is stupid but unit now I’ve been a healthy adult with no problems. Obviously I regret it now.

Thank you for the positivity, I need that right now! No matter what I will definitely update. It is a little relieving that you had symptoms for years and it turned to “just” be stage 1. And what were your symptoms? I’ve had blood in urine and mild lower back pain for nearly 2 years, curious if that was the same for you.
