I have developed anxiety about my health since having a large duodenal polyp (pre cancerous) remove this year. I had no symptons and it was discovered "by accident" via a gastroscopy to investigate reflux. I was hospitalised for 5 weeks after a duodenal resection and the experience really spooked me. I am booked in tomorrow for a gastroscopy to check that all is well in the duodenum and a colonoscopy to check there is nothing lurking in the bowel. Quite anxious about the potential outcome of both !..

I took the first of two CitraFleet sachets this morning and, so far after just one "visit" its OK at the moment. However, I have read some awful reports of the "prep day" before a colonoscopy. Has anyone some words of reassurance for me ?
