I have been on a 3 year cycle since having bleeding polyps in 1999..... Non cancerous. And unfortunately I have had a polyp or two each time. Last one no polyps. And if none again this year then go to every 5 years.
The only "bad" is the usual risk of anesthesia or a puncture of the colon which are very rare out of all colonoscopies ever done.
