She suggested Cologuard - the deal where you dump in a box and mail it off to the lab. Results came back negative. Way better, safer and cheaper than a Colonoscopy. They say I can wait 3 years and try again. So, not doing the Colonoscopy. Wifey still wants me to get a Colonoscopy, but it's not happening. Any of you fellow oldsters go this route? Or did you give in and let a stranger give you a roofie and violate you with an anal probe?
Colon cancer is the easiest cancer to detect. ALL colon cancer is a result of polyps. Bumps in your colon.

All can be removed before they become cancerous.

If they become cancerous, you basically have a death sentence. It's almost irrecoverable.

You can read the dissertation from Druff all you want. The only preventable way to prevent a fatal dose of colon cancer is to get screened every 3 to 5 years. Insurance covers it. And stay away from the retarded Gatorade solution Druff pimps, just take the solution they give you so you get full visibility of your colon. Or listen to Druff and slug a couple Gatorades and get 30% visibility, he knows better. He is a computer scientist we have been told.
