Guest guest Posted August 25, 2004 Report Share Posted August 25, 2004 I had a colonoscopy at Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN in January, and only one very small polyp was removed. The Dr recommended I wait 5 years before having another colonoscopy. My father died of colon cancer, I'm 60 years old, so I'm wondering if 5 years is too long to wait. I came across this site this morning, and the experts can't seem to agree on this either! But, at any rate, I wasn't aware of the new warnings on Avastin. I also take calcium supplements because I have never liked to drink milk, and they can't seem to come to an agreement on the benefits of taking supplements VS drinking milk either. Anyway, on the off chance that you all haven't seen this stuff, this is the URL. http://www.coloncancertoday.com/ http://www.cancernews.com/colon.htm http://www2.kumc.edu/kci/cancerlinks/colon.htm You're all in my thoughts and prayers. Have a good day everyone. ..... Baylee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
