Hi everyone,
I’m new to the forum, but hope someone is able to offer advice please?
in a nutshell, my symptoms started over a year ago and after numerous visits to a&e and being fobbed off with antacids each time, my new GP listened to me in January and sent me for a scan. I was then referred to gastroscopy urgently, and following a gastroscopy a hernia, ulcer and grade B oesophagitis were diagnosed. I went for my follow up gastroscopy last Friday where they then found a 5mm, very unstable, duodenal polyp. The dr who performed the gastroscopy gave me the report but didn’t seem to want to answer many questions, he did however mention surgery. I have been referred to MDT and am awaiting to hear something. Can I ask if anyone on here has had a similar experience please, and how long it took to get treatment? It’s the ‘very unstable’ element that has me worried and Dr Google suggests high chance of cancer?
Thank you in advance
