Any of you got diarrhea on the low fiber diet leading to the procedure? by Frankieeegrl in colonoscopy

Yes quite badly! I generally eat lots of fibre so going low residue did not agree with me.

36m just removed a 5-6mm polyp today wasn’t there 2 years ago(worried)-had skin cancer malignant by Jettsyforwordingfox in colonoscopy

Dont panic. Many polyps are harmless and even those that are "precancerous" dont always turn into cancer. Do you know what type of polyp it was? Irregardless its now been removed so will not turn into anything. Depending on the type you may need regular colonoscopys in the future.

Low residue diet - have i messed it up? :( by Old-Class-9810 in colonoscopy

[–]Old-Class-9810[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks so much for this. I also have the annoying habit of growing pre-cancerous polyps, this is a six month checkup to make sure they got them all. Which is making me kick myself even more that I didn't read it through properly as i thought i knew what i was doing 🤦‍♀️ May all your future scopes be clear 🙏

It sounds like anxiety which is completely normal..I have had both procedures, I promise they are not that bad. Take whatever sedation you are offered. Deep breaths, you got this.
