Thanks for all the suggestions and information. The bladder cancer came before the MDS (and Vidaza--and the NHL goes back 10 years . . . that's where the chemo that led to the MDS would have come from . . . also stem cell transplant (auto) 3+ years ago), so we can't blame the bladder cancer on Vidaza . . . he only lasted 3 days of Vidaza anyway.
Yeah, the platelets are way too high for bleeding . . . and he never has had bleeding problems with that . . . even when platelets were around 10.
He has just had this blood in urine one day last week (also once last November which led to bladder cancer diagnosis). He said it was quite red the first time and then got weaker and weaker through the day until it was back to normal. I would be concerned about a recurrence of the bladder cancer had we not just finished cysto and CT to check for that just two weeks ago.
We see our oncologist/hematologist in about a week and a half, so I'll sure have questions for him. I'm thinking to not worry about calling the urologist until after that . . . two weeks wouldn't make too much difference if it is a recurrence of the bladder cancer . . . and I just don't really think that's likely.
