I hadn't realised that bladder cancer is one of the most expensive diseases to treat because of all the follow up work that has to be done and regular cystoscopies :-(
I can see why given the amount of time that you have to be seen and examined and the powerful equipment that they use. I also considered how many people were involved in my operation. If you have ever had a stay in Hospital just start to count all the people you met and then consider all the people that make that happen and all the technicians and everything else behind the scenes, all the canteen staff, cleaning staff, IT people, theatre nurses - you don't see them and so on?
The treatment and regular follow ups alone must cost a fortune and if this continues for the rest of your life - it can soon add up
