A member asked:
I have external hemorrhoids i went to a doctor and they set me up for a colonoscopy. is it possible they can remove the hemorrhoids during colonoscopy?

Why colonoscopy???: You stated age is 27 years! Is it that you have a fat wallet that they want to trim down? If they tell you that you had some rectal bleeding, remind them that you have hemorrhoids and you would like to have them removed first. Do you have a family history of ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease? Demand an explanation for doing that procedure on you and get second opinion!
