Hi guys,
I noticed upon a search that most of you have had a follow-up colonoscopy at 1 year after DX - I saw my surgeon today and he wants me to have a colonoscopy at 6 months after DX? Isn't this too soon?
I know this is probably erring on the side of caution given my long history with cancer (I may as well marry a tumor, I guess) but it's bugging me a little - mostly because I don't really want to do that prep all over again especially with the FOLFOX already interfering with my stomach. It'll still be in full swing
I know I pretty much have to do it and I don't plan on trying to skip it; but I just wanted to know if it's that unusual to do it so soon?
Also, is it really worse to do the prep and go through the after effects mid-chemo?
Sorry if this is a stupid question...
