A flexible sigmoidoscopy only sees 1/3 of the entire colon, I'm surprised your doctor didn't do the colonoscopy so he could get a clear picture of the entire colon. If you're bleeding and your doctor says he can't see anything please get a second opinion.

I had a colonoscopy in 2013, under the same CRS. was for the same reason. But I think he wanted to double-check.
