Colonoscopies are not necessary
If you don't wanna catch colon cancer early, sure
Otherwise you're a moron.

but otherwise, cologuard is fine.
Their own commercial says, can give false positives and false negatives.
So it may say you have it when you really don't, in that case you'd get the Colonoscopy anyway, OR it could say you dont have any problems, when you really do.

Anything could be a false positive or false negative.

I just had one. By far, the worst part was drinking the concoction they make you drink to clear you out. By far! The actual procedure was nothing.

I understand why Michael Jackson was a propofol fan.

Anti medicine/science propaganda strikes again. You have been duped by those trying to sell you a product, a dumb ideology, or both.

Long time lurker, first time poster here. I created an account just for the purpose of encouraging you to get the colonoscopy.
I had my first at 58 and it turned out I had colon cancer. Luckily, it was only stage 2. It had eaten through 3 of the 4 layers of the colon, but hadn't gotten in my lymph nodes or metasticized. They removed part of my colon and prescribed 6 rounds of chemotherapy. I had a colonoscopy a few weeks ago and I'm all clear now.
Colon cancer is affecting younger individuals and a colonoscopy is a small price to pay for prevention.

Note: I have a scheduled colonoscopy upcoming and this is my second.
What I hear you saying is that you're looking for permission from the OT-Lounge for you to pay another man to stick a large object up your arse. Again.
Go for it, dude. No judgment from us.

Had a family history of colon cancer, got one in my 30s found 3 polyps. Had another 3 years later, nothing, had another 5 years later nothing.
Honestly it's not a big deal to have one. Better to not have cancer
