I don't think you should worry but instead keep your appointments for follow-up colonoscopy and stay aware for symptoms. Don't write off symptoms that you know ate not normal. Polyps are not good news in any form, and that's why regular screening is needed. You had quite a few and you will need to make sure that you keep your colon clear going forward.
I recommend getting your vitamin D levels checked and if you are low do some supplementation under the care of your doctor. Vitamin D3 deficiency may be a contributor to some colon cancers and supimentation may help avoid it. You absolutely must have your levels checked while you atetaking D3 though, because over doing it can be harmful.
I wish you the best.
