I had my colonoscopy today glad is over! LOL so everything looks normal they didn’t find anything they took some biopsies. They found a small polyp 3mm in size in my rectum which they remove. Just waiting on results for biopsies. Dr. recommends to have a capsule endoscopy next to look in the small intestine to make sure she doesn’t miss anything. Glad Dr. making sure everything is well and not just brushing me off since colonoscopy looks normal.

That's such great news. I'm glad they're doing a capsule test, that's how they found my Crohn's as it's in the small intestine.

Yea she told me she doesn’t think I have IBD but is better to check. May I ask what were your symptoms before getting diagnosed?

I was getting bad lower right side stomach pains and always felt full up. I was exhausted all the time, malnourished and lost a lot of weight.
