A member asked:
Mom 56 told she has bladder cancer. friday they removed tumor, monday they said it had already come back. what stage could it be in? how aggressive?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Miscommunication: Bladder cancer won't grow back that fast after surgery. There is a misunderstanding. It's Mom's task to communicate with her physician, and as much as you love her, you will need to receive all the information about her health via her. Nobody here can second-guess. Bladder cancers range from trivial to very aggressive lesions. Mom may invite you to meet with her physicians if you are caregiver.
