I live in France. A sonogram detected a 19 mm polyp in my bladder in May. The scan was prompted by the presence of hematuria. This was followed by a thoracic, abdominal and pelvic MRI which detected no other abnormal growths. I completed a 2 year regimen of prednisone to control Hortons disease and feel that this was the causal factor for this growth. I finally weaned off the prednisone in August of this year. By utilizing some of the protocols of Drs Nicholas Gonzalez and James Forsythe I was able to stop the bleeding, but at a friends birthday party this past weekend I consumed about 2 ounces of champagne and the bleeding resumed with a vengeance. I am seeking an integrative oncologist in southern France. Can you recommend one?
Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor, I will take an opportunity to give an opinion regarding your problem. Was the polyp removed from your bladder? If yes, was it examined microscopically? Hematuria is caused by different causes like disorders of kidney, bladder stones and growths in the bladder. Cystoscopically, a polyp is detected in the bladder. This polyp could be benign or could be malignant. This polyp needs to be removed and sent to a pathologist for microscopically examination. If no malignancy is detected no further treatment is required. If malignancy is present, surgery and/OE chemotherapy is required. So, first you need to consult a surgeon for removal of the polyp. Thanks and take care Chat Doctor.
