Hi I'm a 58 year old female who had a small amount of blood in my poo back in January. I went to the doctors and examined. The doctor organised a blood and fit test.
the bloods came back normal and my fit test was a score of seven this is classed as negative. I explained that my mother had bowel cancer and had part of her bowel removed in her late seventies. The doctor said I was at low risk but because I keep getting discomfort in my bowels and the family history she thought best to refer me.
Any way on Monday I had a colonoscopy and they found a 10mm sessile serrated polyp near my appendix. They couldn't remove it there and then. so I have been told the team will discuss my case and get back to me with what will happen next. I do get I kind of stich feeling where my appendix is. I'm starting to worry about how long I am going to wait for the next steps. any one else been hear?
