Just wondered if anyone else can shed some light on this . I was diagnosed with B/E Sep 2017, ND thankfully . I was told I’d be followed up with a re- scope after 2 years. Am I concerned unduly as its now over 2 years with no appointment ? Have the follow-ups been extended does anyone know? I’m in Gloucestershire .. appreciate any feedback , don’t want to worry unnecessarily ! Best wishes to everyone ..

Hi,
I suggest you phone and ask to speak to the endoscopy secretary to make sure you haven't been forgotten or a letter hasn't gone astray in the post. It is quite possible you've been put on 3 year surveillance but they'd normally have let you know. Guidelines may be found here. If you have Long segment (> 3cm), intervals are recommended at 2-3 years; short segment (< 3cm) intervals recommended at 3-5 years. Though they also take into account family history, body build, anxiety etc. It could be they're just running behind due to excessive referrals. |
