What do you mean by proliferation?
Re: Fear of proliferation!
When a hole is poked in the colon wall during the procedure. It's one of the risks the GI made me aware of. Now it's all I think about.
Re: Fear of proliferation!
Oh you mean perforation - they are very very very rare.
I have had several colonoscopies and sigmoidoscopies over the years without problem and I don't know of anyone that has a problem either.
Re: Fear of proliferation!
Oh! That is very good to hear. When the doctor told me about it I nearly canceled my procedure on the spot. Sorry for the mixed up terminology.
