I had 2 hyperplastic polyps removed at the age of 18 and the doctor didn’t recommend getting a follow up and now 10 years later I’m having a lot of symptoms
I'm 58 years old and had my first colonoscopy in 2021 and also my grandfather died from colon cancer. They found 5 polyps specifically tubular adenomas except one of them had high grade dysplasia. I was recommended to get tested annually so I went in 2022 for a second colonoscopy and they found 4 small polyps and Doc was wondering why I was there so soon and seemed irritated that I was even getting checked, said come back in 3 years. It seems I'm the person who grows polyps at an annual rate so why would they recommend I wait 3 years? Given the fact that one was pre-cancerous wouldn't it be more prudent to be checked every year? I don't understand why I have to wait. Any advice would be appreciated.
Can polyps grow from nothing to well established colon cancer in less than 2 years since a last colonoscopy.? I guess everyone is different will be the answer, based on diet,age,health and genetic history.
Just had a few polyps removed, you have such calming demeanor. Thank you for all the information.
2 precancerous polyps here after recent colo. They were small and 'not aggressive' Doc recommended 5 years until next colo.
Glad you caught them early that’s awesome, yeah if you get checked every 5 years you mostly like catch it early like stage 1 and worse case stage 2

Good information! Thanks.
My last colonoscopy showed 2 cancerous polyps, they were removed, and now I have to get more tests, more often.
How much more often?
@@nano2424 Not sure yet, I was getting it done every three years, my doctor said the hospital will call and schedule the appointments.
@@MrAllan9 oh okay thanks for replying.
U mean cancerous or precancerous? I just had a colonoscopy this month, had one precancerous polyp removed and will go scope again 1 year later
