And if they find a polyp, how does it get removed? I had a colonoscopy 2 days ago & just found out that I had a tortuous colon which made the colonoscopy difficult. She did a retroflexion scope & said she was in & out several times & they had to put pressure on my stomach to get through the procedure. I was very sore & crampy after the colonoscopy which never happened before. I have had 2 previous colonoscopies with endoscopy & the same this time. No mention of a tortuous colon in the previous 2 colonoscopies which were both 5 yr. preventive procedures. I am 62. I find it strange that this is suddenly coming to light when it was not previously there. What causes this?
I had ct colonography and traditional colonoscopy they found that i have redundant tortus bowels with loops on sigmoid colon also proximal loading heavy 😢
