rectal bleeding again with abdominal pain 4 months after 4 small polyps removed, any idea?

Hi,

4 month ago I underwent a colonoscopy and more than three polyps throughout the colon (right and left) about 3mm in size and all of them were serrated but I have not heard anything from the hospital yet.

Anyway, the rectal bleeding was there for a month before the procedure every time I go to the toilet and has stopped straight away after the colonoscopy for about 4 months but today the bleeding returns with vague abdominal pain like burning in the right and upper side of the abdomen.

I am 39 years old and I know that if there are more than three polyps detected throughout the colon so it is a matter of time before things become worse, but it will be a surprise for me if the polyps grow back or new polyps formed in such short time (4 months).

So I am here to find out if someone faces the same problem as me and also to share my little story.

Thanks

  • No, but they did not send it to me according to what I have been told>

    I called my GP about the result but it was not received then I called the Consultant's Secretary who confirmed that the result has been received but declined telling me the result so I did SAR request and got everything related to the colonoscopy.

    So if 2 weeks passed without being notified give them a call or even make a SAR request.
