Not knowing and not being able to do anything is awful, and that's what our parents and grandparents had to contend with. I wish you all the best and hope all goes well for you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sessile-serrated-adenoma---any-experiences#post-1463901 Fri, 27 Mar 2015 15:45:00 +0000 Anonymous 1463901@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Seconding La Belle Demimondaine.<br />Deborah, how really sweet and kind of you to respond so quickly, with such helpful and&nbsp;useful advice, and with such&nbsp;a calm and&nbsp;reassuring tone. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sessile-serrated-adenoma---any-experiences#post-1463605 Thu, 26 Mar 2015 23:36:46 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 1463605@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Big hugs to you, Deb and Deborah. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sessile-serrated-adenoma---any-experiences#post-1462202 Tue, 24 Mar 2015 03:23:59 +0000 deb 1462202@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Deb, yours do sound similar to mine. I think the scariest part for me is the doc says it is an aggressive type, on the ascending right side. I do have colon cancer in the family but not my parents. My maternal grandmother and paternal aunt both had it at a young age. That was before the typing and such. It is nice to know that the time between procedures will stretch out eventually. I am so used to the stroke and seizure stuff and they do not phase me. This is a totally different story. &nbsp;Glad to know it will become part of my 'normal'. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sessile-serrated-adenoma---any-experiences#post-1462201 Tue, 24 Mar 2015 03:21:36 +0000 Adelfa 1462201@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This sounds scary, I'm sorry! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sessile-serrated-adenoma---any-experiences#post-1462191 Tue, 24 Mar 2015 03:00:51 +0000 Deborah 1462191@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Deb:)&nbsp; I have regular colonoscopies:(&nbsp; Each time I have had polyps removed.&nbsp; So far they have all been harmless except one that I believe had the potential to become "sinister' if left to its own devices.&nbsp;&nbsp; I have a tendency to develop the flat type (which I think might be what you are referencing) that are difficult to see :(&nbsp; </p> <p>After my last one last year, I am now on two yearly rotation for my colonoscopy:)&nbsp; </p> <p>Initially this was all very scary for me.&nbsp; My Dad had bowel cancer.&nbsp; But I now approach it in a much more positive light&nbsp; which is that I have the opportunity for prevention when he didn't.&nbsp; After each procedure I make sure the Doc explains <b>everything</b> to me&nbsp; (I don't always remember it later on) so that I am clear on what is happening, if anything.</p> <p>I am probably telling you what you already know but my in my case, my Doctor had me have them every 12 months for a couple of years in order to assess how quickly my body creates and develops them, now I am on 2 yearly.</p> <p>A friend of mine, who has a family history of bowel cancer has them 3 yearly.&nbsp; He has only once had a polyp.&nbsp; I get the impression that 3 years might be along as they stretch it out here.</p> <p>For me this is now just one of the many things I do regularly, like breast test, pap smear, eye checks, etc.&nbsp; </p> <p>Happy to answer any questions if I can help:)&nbsp; </p> <p>xxx Deborah</p> <p></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sessile-serrated-adenoma---any-experiences#post-1462005 Mon, 23 Mar 2015 20:26:03 +0000 deb 1462005@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had two sessile serrated adenomas removed from my colon last month. One with dysplasia and one without, I now need to have another colonoscopy done in three months and another a year after that. This is a new one for me and would like to hear from anyone who has had personal experience with it. Thanks.</p> <p>deb</p>
