Congrats, such a blessing!
I saw your sig line on Aspirin usage. There is a study that suggest taking on baby aspirin 81mg a day reduces the chance of polyps by 40%. I started taking it a while ago despite it having the potential of bleeding in people with ulcers. Hope this helps someone

Sorry CRguy! the email attached to the colon club is an old email and I don't check that one. anyway got your email now and sent the photos.
Yes Mbpser, we were very fortunate to had him in the beginning. He did not give us any appointment after 2013-2014 I think. :roll: :roll: Things work differently in some parts of the world, where you have to give gifts to drs, which we did, but sometime expectations are v high. ( long story!!).
Yes Ivana, she used baby Asprin for few years and then stopped before pregnancy was confirmed.

Congratulations! Happy for you and your family!
So, quick question: during your wif's pregnency, was her CEA elevated/changed? Because I am thinking to have another baby as well, but so worried about the CEA will be shooting up:( so I have to be prepared for that:)

This was exactly the message I needed to read today! For some reason I have really been discouraged and down, even though my last scan was stable...I just haven't wanted to post or even think about this blasted illness!
Reading that your wife endured for 6 + months gives me a boost to never stop fighting!
Thank you!
