Colon Biopsy….20 polyps and a long wait

Hi all,

I have busted the site several times but tonight I have decided to reach out in the hope others may have shared similar stories!
I had a colonoscopy 13/12. They found 20 polyps, 6 were removed, 1 of which was suspicious (likely TVA)

currnt wait time is 6-8 weeks for biopsy results, it’s driving me crazy and I’m also wanted to know what/when the remaining polyps will be removed?

id be so grateful if anyone has any support or experiences to share.

many thanks

Amy

Hello Abigailsnail,

I understand waiting can be tough and worrying, but you won't know anything more until your get your results. There are some tips on coping with waiting for results here, which I hope you'll find useful.

Best wishes to you,
