Just trying to work out what this might mean. I am guessing the polyps are flattish, so no stalks, and over a wide area. But could they actually be a rug of polyps, so over a smaller area? Obviously more tests and procedures are pending and we‘ll have more info fairly soon. The description of the carpet were the words of the doctor doing a colonoscopy - they removed some polyps and they‘ll have gone for testing- the ‚carpet‘ could not be removed.
Is it likely to now be on the so-called cancer pathway, so pretty quick? Has anybody got any experience of such a description for bowel polyps? If so, what happened next?
