Good Morning!

I had my 5 year colonoscopy/endoscopy and was told they found a polyp.  My follow up with my Gastro is in May - and of course I decided to Google Polyps and now I am freaked out.  I am 43 with Celiac and also IBS - anyone else have a polyp? I know the best is to wait to talk to my Dr but I am stressing myself out.

I don’t know the size or which type I am looking for support and someone to help calm me down!! 

Thanks!!!!

I would call and ask.  Usually, if it is cancerous, they will let you know in a few days .  Lots of people have colon polyps....the point is to remove them before they cause issues.

My last scope set they removed one from my colon and one from my stomach. They came back with a biopsy later and nothing was found. I would say do not worry about and be glad they removed them.

Appreciate the advice.  Thank you!

Same here I have them every time I have a colonoscopy.  Don't worry.  If there is a reason to worry they would call you when they get the biopsies back.  No news is good news!!

      I just want to post this new study here--it seems that for those who don't recover on a gluten-free diet may be in this group: https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/scitranslmed.adp6812

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful:

      It does seem like brushing would be needed, and like anything else, a little daily exposure can lead to serious issues for celiacs.

      Good to know! Thanks for sharing this.

      Thank you! This is very helpful I’ll start looking over everything and writing down what I may be recent to. I suspect minor gluten or another intolerance. Do you have any advice on how to possibly expedite my healing process? I’ve heard taking different herbs and vitamin supplements but it’s a bit overwhelming for how recent I’ve been trying to keep track of my diet. Doing my best to feel better since I’m heaving so many annoying symptoms 😕
