Medical -abdominal Mass
People of Reddit,
I am looking for people who have experienced similar and what the next steps were OR from physicians who would like to chime in.
After a good while of having lower right abdominal pain (mostly at night but occasionally during day hours) along with mild back pain. As well as some mild bowel changes, my NP ordered an abdominal CT scan which identified a 2.3 x 2.3x 2.2 cm mass within the large bowel by the ileocecal valve. I was then sent for a colonoscopy - the surgeon said he found nothing - therefore no biopsies were sent.
What next?! One of them were likely wrong. Do I ask for an MRI to better analyze soft tissue mass? Do I ask for a 2nd opinion for either another colonoscopy or radiologist read?
Obviously I am left feeling rather unsettled.
Thanks folks.
