Eye Care Update
As a follow up with Dr Song, the additional eye drops successfully lowered the pressure in my eyes to a 'great' reading. Prior to taking Latanoprost, my pressure reading was 31/37. After a few months of the new prescription (with existing script of timolol), my readings were 9/10. The doctor was ecstatic. (as well as I).
Cystoscopy
Having completed my three rounds of BCG, today was the 'test' to see if the treatment continues to keep my bladder cancer in remission. I've been anxious about the results. After three years of treatments, I was looking forward to having regular intervals of a cystoscopy only.
Having been concerned about the weather for today, it ended up being a beautiful sunny day. There were no issues getting to and from my appointment. Check in was a breeze. My appointment was at 11:30 and I left the parking lot at noon (with a smile on my face).
Dr Previte performed the cystoscopy (I call it a look see). "Everything looks great." He added, "You are a success story." Also added that my PSA results were 2.62 (anything less than 4 is great). After reviewing his notes, he said he would see me in 6 months for my next cystoscopy. But, he also wanted a CAT scan since my last one will be two years old.
So, I graduated to the next level. I await more information on my next appointment at the end of the summer and when my CAT scan will be.
More to come!
