First Turb

Thursday,  Jan.20, 2011.

I arrive at the Outpatient Surgery floor a little early but they go head and bring to to room where I change and they get me hooked up to the machines.  I am 2nd in line.  The anesthesiologist explains asks me his questions and before long I am out.

After waking up,  the Dr says it is cancer based on his experience , briefly shows  me a number of samples he removed,  and said  that I would have to have my bladder out.   He schedules me a CT scan with contrast for in the morning with a visit following.  I go home with a Foley catheter in and some prescriptions.  I am completely clear from anesthesia and the catheter is weird but not hurting.
