My mom is now under the care of my Doc and is having a colonoscopy today to remove the remaining polyps. Doc said anyone with polyps should have colonscopy every 2 years. I also was told that with Crohns, if you have had disease for 8 years or more they want more frequent colonoscopies I assume every other year.
My last colonoscopy they did an endoscopy at the same time. If you're already sedated, and the Dr thinks that there's reason to do an endoscopy, seems like a good idea to do both at the same time. Crohn's Disease for 22 years. Diagnosed in Feb 1989 at age 14. Resection surgery schedule for first week in June.
