    Was struggling with anemia, low energy, out of breath, blood panels showed low hemoglobin, poor red blood cell counts, small and irregular red blood cells.

    Something was chewing up all the red blood cells. Had a colonoscopy / endoscopy (“Oh, so a spit roast!” - “Don’t call it that!”) and they found 17 polyps. 2 were abnormally large (>5mm) one was 20mm, one 30mm.

    No cancer though, wanted to re-do in January.

    Went back, 6 more polyps, one 20mm + stage 2 cancer.
