@blac I can see how worried you are. How many polyps were found and removed during your colonoscopy 2 years ago? The number of and type of polyps results in the recommendation in when to have your next colonoscopy? What’s the recommendation? In 3 years? Sooner?

I haven’t had colorectal cancer but I have had 1 cm polyps retrieved during a colonoscopy that resulted in the recommendation for more frequent colonoscopies. Every 3 years for me.

I recommend that you call your primary care provider’s office and make an appointment. Have you already done that? The way to set your mind at ease is allow your doctor to look at what you found and help you to decide what to do. Will you do that?

Yea the last time ,it was only one polyps that was found and it was lesser than 1cm,
I would love to do another but presently where I am they don't have such facilities,
And cannot afford the procedure for now, may God help and have mercy on me.
