This wasn’t the “normal chemo”. I had bladder cancer. What the ‘cure’ is involves running a tube up your d*ck, and putting some really nasty chemical straight into your bladder.
You “hold it in” for 3 hours, lying on each side, back, stomach so the chemical soaks in to all sides.
Then, you get to pee blood for six hours and it burns like hell for 3 days. You have to Clorox the toilet for the next 48 hours after this, because the chemical can/will cause tuberculosis for the next user otherwise.I was grooving on the peeing blood stuff. Before that I was so freaked I was getting sick to my stomach.
jwb …well, since I am not a guy …I cannot relate to the tube …I had many rounds of chemo and there was a point that I was not sure if I was alive or dead …it’s a real party in the treatment rooms …when I had my port taken out of my chest …I had the surgeon give it to me and I stepped on it and smashed it …made me feel better …the only thing that kept me going was a sense of humor …hey …at least we made it!
