Asking this after a quick search already, but I just had my second colonsocopy. I'm 26, and my first was at 19--my delay in following up was due to Covid and not hearing back from the previous facility, plus money and yadda yadda. That first colonoscopy resulted in finding two polyps which contained precancerous cells.
I know I'll hear back in about a week from the biopsy results, but just to ease my mind a little, would presumed cancer show up in a colonoscopy? After my scope today, the doctor and all of the rest of the staff didn't seem too concerned at all, giving me a five year follow-up and told me that I did great and sent me home. The endoscopy facility I went too has great reviews. I had four polyps which were obviously removed during the procedure. Should I take this as "you're likely all good so long as you stay on top of your colonoscopies" or should I take it as "you might find out you have cancer in a week"?
Again, I know the biopsy results will tell all, but in your experience, should I be concerned at this very moment that I have cancer?
