Hi. My name is Jodana. I'm 42 and have 2 sons. I'm from Kent and I'm being tested for possible colon cancer. I'm new to this forum and wanted to get some advice from people who have had a colonoscopy. I had one yesterday, Monday 22nd November for the first time. They removed a small polyp for biopsy and I was sick during the procedure. It was very unpleasant. My question is, did anyone feel a sharp pain on the RIGHT side of the abdomen once sedation wore off? Should I be concerned? I'll probably phone the endoscopy ward later but I don't wanna jump the gun just yet. I was thinking the pain is due to the removal of the polyp and I only felt the pain once I was home and sedation had worn off.
Any advice would be really appreciated
Jodana
