Diagnosed with a tubularvillious adenomatous polyp in my colon and had 4 in my breast, not cancer. could i get all tissue removed before i get more?!

Unlikely: You will require another colonoscopy sooner than normal. A tubulovillous adenoma as you know is benign. No way to remove all at once because new ones can develop at other times. Routine screening is important. I would not be overly concerned with this. Hope this helps.
