The cancer was first discovered after Braeden was having issues with his prostate
82, shared with his fans that whilst recovering from knee surgery, he began to have issues with his prostate.
After speaking with a new urologist, who coincidentally told Braeden he had learned English from his character Victor on "The Young and the Restless," he discovered his condition was more serious. In the soap opera, Eric Braeden plays Victor Newman, married to Melody Thomas Scott's character of Nikki Newman.
Once a week for six weeks, Braeden says he receives BCG treatment, which according to the American Cancer Society, "is the most common intravesical immunotherapy for treating early-stage bladder cancer. BCG is a germ that's related to the one that causes tuberculosis , but it doesn’t usually cause serious disease. When BCG is put into the bladder as a liquid through a catheter, it helps "turn on" the immune system cells there, which then attack the bladder cancer cells.
"I'm okay, really. It's not bad. Hopefully, it stays that way. But every time you go there, you cringe because they're going to go up your you-know-what. And infuse you with that serum. But if it helps you, then to hell with it, I'll do it. So that's where I am right now."says he has reduced his workout load, which has been a hard adjustment.
