Colonoscopy

Hi eventually had my colonoscopy last week it was cancelled in March due to the coronavirus, had 6 biopsies and some polyps removed but also a very large one in my sigmoid colon which needs to be removed surgically going for a ct scan on Monday to check on the extent of the polyp feeling very upset because of the 15 week wait and wondering would it be different if I had had the colonoscopy  in the 2 week wait I had been referred for.

  • Hi Toffeeapple,

    I hope everything went OK last week. I'm sure the waiting was really difficult and has no doubt thrown up some 'what ifs'. However if you can, try to focus on the fact that there was nothing that could have been done differently unfortunately, and you will hopefully soon find out more including any potential next steps.

    I hope things go well with everything next week and that you can get the information you need soon.

    Wishing you all the best,
