Should I get it? Am I overreacting?
I am 32 F and very healthy and recently found a gallbladder polyp and now getting very anxious about colon cancer. I believe there is no history of colon cancer in my moms side of the family but I don’t talk to my dad so not sure about ANY family history there.
Ever since I can remember I have always had a sensitive stomach. I don’t have nausea after every meal but if I eat something with heavy cream I do feel nauseous. Healthy foods I feel fine (I primarily eat very healthy). No blood in stool. No thin stools. I also have been having some constipation but also taking iron supplements. It’s getting better. My ferritin is low.
Based on this should I get a colonoscopy? My doc thinks I should just do it at 40.
