A member asked:
How long to wait for safe colonoscopy after colon resection? polyp in rectum, blood in stool, no stoma.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Coordinate: With your surgeon & your gastroenterologist. Maybe wait 4-6 weeks after surgery, but would be best to get the approval from your surgeon who knows your condition in detail, before having colonoscopy.
