Hi 

 

Has anyone had experiance with a 20mm polyp removal. I had a colonoscopy yesterday after 8 months of bowl i I'm 25 they removed a 20mm polyp and i am awaiting the results from the histolagist before they remove the other polyp. I wasn't given any information or any reassurance so thought I ask if anyone has been in a similar situation and what I might expect.

    Hello Dcjcrc, 

    I just wanted to welcome you to our forum. I hope you will meet others here who have been in a similar situation and had polyp removals before and that they will be along shortly to share their experience with you. 

    I hope you won't have to wait too long for your results. If you want to talk things through with one of our nurses, they may be able to tell you more about what to expect from the polyp removal process. You can give them a call free of charge on 0808 800 4040 - their line is open Monday to Friday from 9am to 5pm. 

    Keeping everything crossed for you for good results! 

    Best wishes,
