My doctor wants me to have a colonoscopy because of my anemia?
She told me that low iron counts can be a sign of possible colon cancer, has anyone esle heard of this?
My iron couts have been decresing each year for the past 3 years.

Yes, because colon cancer causes rectal bleeding which causes anemia. But don’t be too alarmed because anemia doesn’t always mean cancer it is often caused by other problems. i am 15 and have already under gone an endoscopy/colonoscopy and will go through another one in a little over a week. the worst part is the prep! the rest is easy. once they put you out you won’t remember anything! i woke after a couple of hours and just thought the test lasted a few minutes! lol! good luck! hope this helps! =)
Yes and it’s no big deal. The prep is the worst part.
