Just Diagnosed

I had a little blood inmy urine last month. My doctor did all the normal tests including x rays thinking it might be a stone of some kind. Everything was negative as were all the blood and prostrate tests. He then had an IVP sone which was also negative. He then insisted I go to a urogolist who did an ultra sound which was also negative. He then did the scope which showed early bladder cancer I will soon have outpatient surgery scheduled. Obviously I am anxious and still in shock. At least it was found early thanks to my doctor who would not give up looking for a cause.
One thing, for me the cystoscope procedure was not that bad with no after effects. I know I will have to have more of them in the future so I hope they are all that way.
