[quote=Anonymous]I had my first because a tumor had been spotted in a ct scan when I was 41 (had been testing to find out what was causing abdominal pain). It was cancer. So I have now had several colonoscopies and it has been determined over my 6 years that I have to do an almost 2 week low res diet and the strongest prep available. My body is special like that. That said, life got better once the tumor was gone and the cancer had not spread. A friend of mine recently had bleeding after his colonoscopy - a polyp was snipped out and a couple days later, he wound up in the hospital. He knows how rare his complication was-we talked about it. He didn’t want to scare people away from the procedure. Yes, there is always a slim chance of complication anytime you have a surgical procedure. Shouldn’t keep you from doing potentially life saving screenings.[/quote]
