In response to "Abnormal blood work as in anemia? -- nm" by James Bond (aka Igor)

Yeah, he thought I might have bleeding in my large intestine or cancer.

I had neither. Two polyps in the lower maybe pre cancer but he said they didn't look cancerous.

I have a lot of polyps in my stomach and some of those are bleeding which is causing my anemia. Took biopsies but he says because their are more than 1 it's very very likely that it isn't cancer.

After the biopsies come back negative (I am trusting him that they will be that) we need to figure out how to treat them.

- I don't remember, and like a dork I didn't ask for the blood work results. But it was low enough for the doctor to order the two tests -- nm - Bacon Jul 27, 21:27
My Mom also has many polyps in her stomach so it's probably genetic. Her's don't bleed though. -- nm - Bacon Jul 27, 21:25 1
- I got a nice set of pictures of mine too. -- nm - Bacon Jul 27, 21:26
