    Re: Wish me luck. I am having roid removal surgery tomorrow

    Thanks everyone. Surgery went fine.
    Not too much pain so far. Bearable. But wondering if it will get worse.
    I am having problem with having a constant urge to urinate. Like a UTI . I have called surgeon but he hasn't got back to me.
    Has anyone else had this after colonoscopy?
    Also 2 polyps were found. I don't know anything g further about this. I dont want to google about it.
    So does this mean I have higher risk of cancer?

    I've never had a constant urge to urinate after a colonoscopy.
    Polyps can turn into cancers but usually they remove them when they find them so they can't grow. I think it just means you will need to have colonoscopies more regularly (maybe every 2 years instead of every 5 years?).

    Bummer (literally) about having more frequent colonoscopies . They suck!
    Spoke to surgeon about needing to pee all the time. He said it is common after roid removal. Her recommended running a bath and peeling in the bath as the warm water helps....
