Had colonoscopy 2nd March. Have been diagnosed with precancerous polyp. Still waiting for follow up
Posted , 4 users are following.
I have been diagnosed with a 40mm serrated sessile polyp near the oleocaecal valve which takes up one third of the circumference of the colon. Referred to colorectal multidisciplinary team on 17th of March. Have heard nothing. Not even an appointment letter. Does anyone know how long the normal waiting time is. Grateful for any input.

Sorry to hear this I hope you get the result soon and be taking care of. I have a question for you Ann may ask what was your symptomps and if you are under age of 40.
Beacuse I am suffering from the colon problem and I am 38 years old and I did most of the tests except the colonoscopy which I am afraid of its sedation.
It's been two years now that I am having pain in the upper left side of my colon and the pain gets worse when I have bowl movment. I am severely constipated as well. But when I have normal bowl movment the pain gets low. I never had blood in the stool and I did different stool tests that all ame normal but when I reaserch on google everything ends up with cancer which freaks me out.

Don't be worried about sedation. I cancelled my first colonoscoy due to being scared of sedation. I asked for 1 mg and it did nothing. I had slight discomfort when they pump the air in and that was it. Just wish I'd of done it the first time as I would of had my answers then!

Sorry for just butting in the conversation, i just wanted to say i have had 4 polyps removed at once, one was pre cancerous and when the biopsy was done i had high cell change which was scary but now i have been kept on the list for surveillance, i never had any symptoms at all, mine was found because i had a bowel screening and blood was detected in my stool,, sometimes polyps bleed which you can't see its so minimal
