Early 40s

They found a cancerous growth in time.

Don't wait. It's not a bad procedure

I was 24 when I got my first one. Bloody stool.

I actually woke up in the middle of the the procedure. I can remember about 15 seconds the of looking at a tv screen showing video of my insides and some of the nurses pushing on my stomach to help move the tube along. Crazy

You should rest assured reading this post that a colonoscopy is no big deal. The prep while not absurdly bad is the worst part. And luckily for me after having had four, I'm cleared for 10 years till the next which will be my second to last. I don't plan on living into my nineties.

It depends on family history. 45-50 is a good start though
