Nasal polyps

I have nasal polyps and been told by consultant when I have them operated on there is a 50% chance I could lose some vision anyone been in the same position , worried to say the least 

  • Hello and thank you for posting. 

    I'm sorry to hear about your situation, and others on the cancer forum may come forward with their own experiences, but nasal polyps are rarely cancer.

    I can understand your worries around the statistics that the Doctor has given to you about your vision, but it is normally an uncommon side affect of this surgery. I think it would be good for you to discuss risks and benefits with the surgeon further so you feel clearer.

    Take care, and I hope you feel you get the information you need soon.

    Sarah.
