Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
UrgentCare2Go
What is Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP)?
FAP is a hereditary condition causing hundreds of polyps in the colon and rectum, increasing colorectal cancer risk.
Who should be evaluated for FAP?
Individuals with a family history of colon polyps or colorectal cancer should undergo evaluation and genetic counseling.
What symptoms indicate possible FAP?
Symptoms may include rectal bleeding, changes in bowel habits, abdominal pain, or iron-deficiency anemia, though many cases are asymptomatic early.
Are genetic tests required?
Genetic testing can confirm FAP and help determine surveillance and preventive strategies for you and your family.
Can children be evaluated?
Yes, early evaluation in children at risk is recommended to implement surveillance and preventive care.
How is FAP monitored?
Regular colonoscopy, upper GI endoscopy, and consultation with specialists help manage polyp growth and reduce cancer risk.
Is mobile urgent care appropriate for FAP evaluation?
UrgentCare2Go can assess symptoms, review family history, and facilitate genetic testing referrals, though colonoscopy requires in-clinic care.
Does insurance cover FAP evaluation?
Most insurance plans cover genetic counseling and evaluation; coverage depends on medical necessity and plan details.
What treatments are available if FAP is diagnosed?
Management may include regular surveillance, polyp removal, and preventive surgery in high-risk individuals.
Can lifestyle changes reduce risk?
Healthy diet, exercise, and avoiding tobacco/alcohol support overall colon health but do not replace screening or genetic monitoring.
How soon should at-risk family members be evaluated?
Screening should begin in childhood or adolescence based on genetic counseling recommendations.
