All finished..........

Well colonoscopy is finished. The "end" (haha) result was that 4 polyps were removed. One of them was attached tightly to colon wall so when it was pulled and snipped some moderate bleeding occured. Clips were put their to control the bleeding HOWEVER I will now have to have another follow up colonoscopy in 3 - 6 months so she can make sure "no residual tissue" from the polyp is still their. With the bleeding she didn't want to snip anymore for fear of causing a hole. So, will have another one in 3 months.

I questioned her over and over and over again on if she thought any of these polyps could be cancer and she continued to reassure me that she didn't fear that all. So.........................she told me not worry (which I will) and said it went well.

So, good thing I went through with this.

Oh ya, the moderate sedation (demerol and versed(not sure if that's how that one is spelled) caused me to vomit a few times when it was over.
