Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Colonoscopy should be done as your doctor has advised you. It is done to see any change that polyps may have, and this way to have an earlier intervention so the situation to be controlled in time. It seems that your situation is going well so don't give up controlling yourself.

All the best.
