Re: Why does Zytiga fail?

Hi Terry,

Were you sedated for the cystoscopy when the stent was put in and then removed? My urologist used the cystoscope just to take a quick around in the bladder. He used what I suppose was lidocaine and it turned out to be the most painful procedure I have experienced which lasted fortunately for only two minutes.

G'day

Re: Why does Zytiga fail?

I had a full anaesthetic Jack. The first procedure took over and hour and the second about forty minutes. I don't think the placement and replacement of stents could have been dealt with in any other way. The cystoscopy was incidental to the main procedure.

All the best

Terry

Terry,

I appreciate the non-judgmental tone of your response. I couldn't fault you for thinking:

I don't think the placement and replacement of stents could have been dealt with in any other way, you idiot.
