Thank you for explaining this. I was just informed today that they found precancerous polyps in me. My heart dropped. I am glad I found this, because it put me at some ease.
This is helpful. I just spoke to my doctor a day after my procedure and they found 3 polyps that were benign. I was stressing out so I am glad that I followed up by watching this video just to check the information. Gosh, great information that was easy to digest and understand. Thanks.
Fantastic job at explaining the scope of risk surrounding this topic and general process while keeping it super simple and easy to understand! Just what I was looking for. Thanks!
Thank you!! Thank you!! I am so grateful to be here!!! I am over 50 had a colonoscopy done and endoscopy. I did a follow-up visit to read the results and the Doctor looked at me and said you're very lucky they found polyps and removed them. He said come back in 3 years and that's exactly what I am going to do. I take health very seriously. I take it so serious, I decided to work two part time jobs instead of a long 8 hour job that doesn't a lot me to go to my doctor's appointments. My health comes first. Please don't put your health before anything, because if your is not right you won't be able to do anything anyway. Your health is your wealth have a wonderful day🥂
I’m 38 I’ve had stomach issues for many years Today I had a lot of blood. I believe I have these pre polyps already. I have to go see someone. Thanks for the video
My husband has stomach issues also for years. He tested the stool first and it has blood. He just had a colonoscopy today and there were a few polyps. We are praying it to be benign.
I'm 27 and just had colonoscopy done. They found one 2-3mm polyp. I had no symptoms, I went in for a check up on my hemorrhoids. My family doctor signed me up for a full colonoscopy which I thank her for because if I never had h, I'd never have this polyp removed.
I just had a colonoscopy today and they found 8 polyps one being 1.5cm and the other 7 under 1. cm. I had 2 colonoscopy in the past and and think I had 2 or 3 polyps removed in those other procedures. Why I’m looking on yt to find out if having 8 polyps were serious and most put milla meters and I’m trying to figure out compared to CM which is larger.
I just had a colonoscopy yesterday and the doctor said he removed 1 small polyp but however his notes mentioned polyps. I’m confused about how many there actually were now. I’m praying it wasn’t cancer. I have an uncle who had colon cancer about a year or two ago and yesterday found out my grandma on moms side had polyps that were either cancer or getting ready to turn in to cancer and my mom had a polyp years ago and her two sisters and a brother also had polyps. I’m terrified something bad will come of this. It’s worried me sick about it til the pathology report comes back.
If he removed it, you should be fine. That's the point of a colonscopy. My first one 18 yrs ago found a adenomatous polyp and they removed it. That's a type of precancerous polyp or one that could possibly turn into a cancer. Removing it removes the chances of cancer. I then had one ten years after that and it was clear. Today, I had my third and they again found a tiny polyp, possibly another adenomatous one, and removed it.This is why it's important to have colonoscopies. It removed the possibility of cancer....
@@jazbiaahmed If they were to get big enough they may cause issues but mine were under 6mm in size, very small and were removed. So I did not have any issues with them, no pain bloating or diarrhea.
i just had a colonoscopy this early morning and I had a polyps . The doctor removed the polyps during the colonoscopy.. Im still 28 . I had this symptoms: abdominal pain, gas
I am watching this because my mother had a colonoscopy done and had to have 7 polyps removed. Thankfully they were removed but the simple fact that they were surgically removed is what concerns me. They probably didn't even tell her how big they were because she didn't mention that detail to me. But I really pray that none of hers turn out to be cancer. We have already lost my Dad over a year ago. And the very last thing that I need is for my mother to end up with some form of colon cancer because I don't know if I can save her from all that and I don't want to lose both of my parents in such a short time. That would be devastating for me. 😓
Same here.. I lost my father due to Liver cancer in 2019, and now giant polys ( 5 cm) was found in my mom rectum.. Biopsy was done.. But we're still waiting for the result. 😔
Thank you I feel better now waiting for the pathology report after having a positive Cologuard and just getting 2 small polyps removed on my Colonoscopy Thursday along with hemmoroids.
Had 2 colonoscopy in the last 2 months, first one they removed 6 polyps but had to abandon the procedure due to a poor bowel prep, second colonoscopy they removed a further 7, 5 were cold snares but 2 larger ones had to be cauterised, so 13 in all. Currently awaiting results of biopsy’s which take 10 to 12 weeks. Told me I’ll need checking every 2 years
@@moviehub9645 had another colonoscopy (3rd in 12 months) in September were they removed 2 more polyps so 15 in all. They identified a few more smaller ones which they left, I have to have another in colonoscopy in 6 months time to monitor and if ok then it will be every 2 years. None of the polyps removed were cancerous which is a relief
I just had mine this morning and I’m worried i had my stomach pain in 6 years now i think and i did everything checked up except my doctor didn’t have this option Found 1 diminutive pedunculated polyp at sigmoid colon now waiting for the result of biopsy i hope nothing serious 😢 🙏
Don’t be scared just pray on it ! God is good ! I just had a colonoscopy and they found 1 large peduculated polyp. They removed it and now I am waiting for my results which is driving me crazy to.
And the other question is, “Since polypectomies are why a patient suffers a perforation, how much safer is it to actually leave polyps right where they are?”
My father's age is 66. Colonoscopy was done to diagnose IDA . They have found 9 polyps in colon and 1 in rectum . Largest of these is 1.2 cm × 1 cm . All of these are sent for biopsy and I have to wait for 1 week for the result . Is it possible that one polyp has metastsised to creat other 9 polys ??
Just had my 3rd colonoscopy last week and they took out 3 polyps. My father never got a colonoscopy in his life and wound up with stage one colon cancer as a result. I’m not taking a chance
Every cell in my body has cancer potential. I had my last colonoscopy at age 62. I have done the FIT stool test every year since then. I believe that colonoscopy is done excessively in the USA. Yes, it saves lives.... but, rarely are the complications of the procedure talked about.
@@nopressurenodiamonds5566 As I understand, other countries do not use colonoscopy as frequently but there is no higher death rate from colon cancer. If 100,000 colonoscopy procedures are done and it saves 5 lives that is great but what is not talked about is the times the procedure causes harm....infection, perforation, sedative issues, etc.
I put off having a colonoscopy when I should’ve had it done and now I have to have surgery because of a cancerous polyp that was found. If I had the screening at 50 instead of 57, I think I would’ve avoided this heartache I’m going through now. I would highly recommend everyone get screened. The procedure was nothing like I thought it was going to be. I worried for nothing.
I had a colonoscopy almost a year ago and the doctor told me later that he thought he removed it all but it was precancerous . I had a lot of pain after that colonoscopy and still have intermittent pain on the left side of my abdomen under my rib. Maybe I was perforated? I have another colonoscopy coming up in 4 weeks and I am sick just thinking about it. Praying so relentlesstly🙏🏽🤲🏾🌹
My sigmoid polyp was removed today. Doctor gave a bottle and asked me defecation on floor to get it for biopsy. Repeated effort the polyp didn't come out from anus.I tried in home also but not seen . Doctor said..its ok if not found. I clearly seen during colonoscopy it was uprooted very easily..pls suggest me I am terrified
I had a colonoscopy last January and had nine polyps and all were precancerous. Just had my annual colonoscopy and this time I had 12 polyps and 11 were precancerous. Doctor is referring me to get a genetic study. 2020 and 2021 😢

hes right about the risk of polyps and de sedation i walk up very bad anable to brath and my blood presure was so low that they force me to cought and breath i was choking so bad that at one point my live was at risk be sure to ask before this happens
@@marcopiscina4848 Thank you very much. That’s very nice of you. Unfortunately, the polyp was cancerous. I’m awaiting imaging and lab appointments now. My doctor keeps telling me not to worry, but it’s easier said than done.
In my case, I developed an undiagnosed severe anemia that weakened my immune system so much that I got shingles . Went to the ER and was diagnosed with severe anemia which required multiple blood transfusions and iron infusion. The culprit was a bleeding colon polyp of 4 centimetres that was removed. That was 4 months ago, and I am slowly getting my strength back. Next ( second ) colonoscopy will be in one year from the first. Just a simple blood test triggered a search for the source of the bleeding, that test saved my life
Well thank you for your information I feel little bit better I had a colonoscopy today found three polyps it is going to pathology but I am glad I watch this now I feel a little bit less stressed and anxious thank you
No, I didn’t find anything about my colonoscopy result with polyps, and assuming that everything went OK other than the doctor would have called me which he never did so I am assuming that and I polyps are not an issue. Thank you for asking though.
Thank you so much doctor.... im so much relaxed now... bcs my husband is waiting for his biopy report as tge dr found abt 5mm polyp during his colonoscopy.... 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
This is good to know. All the more reason to skip an invasive colonsocopy and use Cologuard instead. Cologuard detects 94% of stage 1 and 2 cancers, virtually the same as colonoscopy but without the risks. Problem is that when any polyp is detected during a colonoscopy you're put on a schedule to go back every 3-5 years-even a single very small polyp.
@@Hjkmaz I had a colon guard three years ago, so I was due again and I decided to do another colorguard, the first one came out fine… Well this one picked up blood I believe with DNA changes, the best thing to do is just get a colonoscopy because it did not detect mine three years ago and I had a 1 inch polyp… this was in February I go back in August to make sure that they got it all.. I’ll probably have to go every 2 to 3 years now for the rest of my life
@@Hjkmaz I had an adenoma type polyp, which is pre-cancerous, I do not have cancer I was very lucky ,do not wait ,get a colonoscopy most of the time you’re asleep and you wake up and you walk out. You don’t feel a thing
@@Hjkmaz probably older than you, you should have one by the age of 45.. if you have any symptoms with blood , diarrhea constipation, too much of it either one..you need to get it checked.. if you have symptoms like these before the age of 45 you should get it checked…. People in the 20s and 30s get colon cancer. Go on the Internet and put in 20-year-olds 30-year-olds with colon cancer stories , you will find many.
