Have IBSD and C. Also, I have diverticulosis and have had 3 polyps (andenomatous and 2 serrated) removed almost 8yrs ago. I’m 2 yrs late for my colonoscopy because I was in the ICU with a brain bleed, gran mal seizures 2 strokes and respiratory failure and had to be put on a ventilator for 7 days. I was scheduled to have my colonoscopy on May 7, but yesterday at my gastro doctor , she had to push it back to July. She needs to get clearance from all of my drs since I had an another stroke, seizure and a heart attack in January.
