Congratulations Jocelyn!

I want to congratulate my brother Jocelyn who went for his colonoscopy yesterday. It was not in vain because they found a small polyp that they took out instantly. For Jocelyn it is the third polyp that he has removed. The other two were there about 4-5 years ago. If you do not know about polyps they are not cancerous tumors and once removed there's nothing more to be done. But polyps, which are not removed can become cancerous over a period of 3 to 5 years. So polyps are usually benign, but they must be removed because their potential for malignancy is high in the medium to long term.
