It's been over 4 weeks since I had a colonoscopy. The doctor who preformed the procedure never spoke to me afterwards. There were some findings from the colonoscopy that no one spoke to me about until last week when I got sick and my GP barely touched on it when I asked for the colonoscopy findings. The reason for the colonoscopy referral was due to fever, abdominal pain and back ache which is suspected was linked. Extensive diverticulosis was found. I was hardly told.
There was a polyp too and that was removed and sent for biopsy. I do t know of there was any other biopsies taken throughout the procedure.
I was at the doctor last week but the biopsy still isn't back.
I'm suck to my back teeth of having to nearly beg for the results for the colonoscopy test. I was hardly told that I have extensive diverticulosis. Especially last summer I was sick and it was suspected I had an infection in the gut.
What happens with biopsy results?
Are they sent back to the GP? Does the GP inform of the results?
