That is what the Doc said after Scott's colonoscopy and biopsy.
Good - he does not appear to have any GVH-if he does it is super mild.
Good - he had a sizable polyp that is the kind that would have turned to cancer. He also had one other little one. The doc said that big one had probably been growing for 8-10 years. They got them and all is well. Told him to tell his family members and that his girls will need to get checked at 40 instead of the regular 50 recommendation.
SO PSA - get a colonoscopy- call your doctor today!!!
I'm sure Scott will post more, but he is sleeping now and will be out of it for a while. We won't get home till about 7 tonight so by then he should be ok.
Thank you all for your prayers. And for those of you who did not know, Scott's 50th Birthday is Sunday!!! Oh and our anniversary was yesterday- 4 years that I would not trade for anything, even though our celebration was a burger for me and prep liquid for Scott!!! Best 4 years of my life to date, because I have the best husband on the planet.

That is great news!
ReplyDeleteMy mom may kill me for sharing this but she also had polyps removed on her colonoscopy and they recommended that my sister and I get screened early as well.
I believe that my great grandpa had colon cancer so perhaps everyone in the family should be screened or at least aware of this? (And we should all up our fiber intake!)
Have a safe drive home and see you soon.
