A member asked:
What would cause the colon to have a grainy texture and nodularity and mucus in the sigmoid colon if biopsies are negative?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Colon biopsy: Biopsy does not show mucus. They did not biopsy what they saw or it was not there when biopsied. Discuss with your GI Dr.
