Why don't you simply call them up and ask for a pathology review? Find another facility such as a large hospital and have your samples sent there. If you are this distraught about it, pay for it yourself if necessary. It’s been crazy. I have been waiting since Friday for the nurse to call me back s...

Thank you for your kindness and advice. And those are good questions that I do need to think about. I guess I should make an appointment with my GI and just tell him of my concerns...ask him about the pathology (level of dysplasia, carcinoma in situ, etc.) and, also, how certain he is that the rese...

Please don't take this as being offensive but one thing that seems to be coming through loud and clear in your posts is that you seem to not believe that a polyp can't just be benign....no cancer in situ, NO level of dysplasia, no cancerce.

However, I do think that you need to be prepared that maybe you just have a benign polyp. Back in 2008, I was told that I had a polyp removed during my first ...

First of all, the removal was by a piecemeal technique usi...

I don’t know, I’m sorry. I just feel uneasy...maybe from doing so much research online.

And I thought pa...

I just had my first colonoscopy at 50. To my surprise, doctor removed a 2 cm polyp from my ascending colon. After the procedure he told me he thought it was fine, but large, and would call with pathology results. Doctor called me a day later after I aggravated his office enough and said it came back...
