Colonoscopy with ICD

Has anyone with an ICD problem had a colonoscopy? I am just waiting for my appointment in next couple of weeks but worried because during my initial appointment it was mentioned that if I needed anything removed when procedure was happening it can affect ICD. I will of course mention this next time I speak with doctor but wondered if anyone else had a problem. Also worry about my very low blood pressure - it's only usually mid 80's.

Hi puppy pls don't worry it's fine , I've had it done twice and they have to tell you worst case scenarios to cover their backs. Hope all goes well for you.

Thank you so much - that's made me feel better about it. I am hoping there will be no polyps or anything to take away as that is when ICD could go off apparently. It' s enough to worry about on top.of having the procedure done. I am dreading it. Should be end of this week or the next.
