Reply to "Have I put it off too long?"

Liz, it is normal to just live your life when you feel fine. Unless you have a high cancer probability (from FAP or dysplasia, for example) there is very little risk from ignoring a well-functioning J-pouch. Some folks like to monitor things more closely, and that’s fine, but other folks will treat that like an urgent matter, and that’s an exaggeration at best. Now that you have symptoms it’s a good idea to deal with them, but I’m glad you experienced what sounds like 10 completely normal, “nothing to see here” years.
