If didn’t get one I would be dieing of colon cancer right now so, yeah. Get one. The worst part about a colonoscopy is not the procedure (they put you to sleep for that) but the cleansing you have to do for it.
The age for colorectal screening for average risk folks was lowered from 50 to 45, make sure you get one. Chances of survival are very good if caught early, but if you wake up one day and something is already hurting/wrong then it’s probably game over.
Cologuard here. Still not fun walking into a UPS store to drop off a branded box. Sheesh!
Which Console for when I need a prostate exam?
I asked my dr. for prostate exam / colonoscopy at 40 and she told me I’m good for another 5-10 years. Do you know how hard it was to ask for those tests? 😂
Had one. They are not fun.
I still have its predecessor…
My cousin just had surgery for colon cancer. She’s 36. I have a friend who went in because of a scare. He’s 23. It is happening a lot faster these days, especially with all of the processed foods we’re eating. Colon cancer can spread incredibly fast so you need to act quick if you think something is wrong
Why would you “pucker up?” Do you get a little kiss on yours at the end? Cause that’s fucking odd.
Already done. You’ll be happy to know I’m all clear.
But I’m only 26
Get a colonoscopy as soon as you can. Having some stuff up your butt isn’t that bad and it sure beats cancer. Even watching people die of cancer is horrible.
Yup, I’ve had two so far and I’m 51.
More likely you’ve already had one.
But I’m only 35. I had a 2600 Jr.
My Grandmother died of Colon Cancer back in the 80s, not a good way to go. If they detect it early your odds are pretty good these days so definitely get the test.
Did my first one a few months ago, not fun but worth it totally.
I did and I’ve had mine!
Seriously though, don’t sleep on it. My best friend died 2 years ago at 46 from colon cancer. He made all of us promise, when he told us he was terminal, that we would get it done ASAP because we all grew up in a Superfund area
And yes, the procedure was nothing, because I was out, but that prep….ugh….hours of salty Gatorade. I did live Tweet the prep though, wish it had been more entertaining.
You suck!
On another note, I saw one of these for sale in target recently.
I pooped in a bucket and mailed it.
No cancer. Whoop!
yeah already did them a couple of times, you would think it’s a horrendous experience, but the drugs they give you…
Already scheduled.
They can do robots now! They’re huge! (Nah they’re very tiny don’t worry)
Damn, just did mine on Friday…lol
Nah, only 32. Not quite there yet, don’t make me older than I am.
I still have my original one (2600) … and I have one scheduled (scope).
Ha ha ha ha… aw.
Not yet
Been there, done that. First one at 45 found a few pollops that, left untreated, would have likely gone cancerous.
Due to for the next one this year…already dreading the prep. 💧💩🚽
But I’m 20…
When I hit 50 last summer they told me that they don’t do routine colonoscopies anymore. They do poop screenings. So I did that test. And the result was “you need to schedule a colonoscopy”. Now I’m waiting for that, hoping I don’t have ass cancer.
Literally just got my first colonoscopy last month! And yes, I got the Atari 2600 for Christmas at release when I was 10 years old.
Someone tag me when they post the super Nintendo
Colon cancer is the most preventable and also treatable cancer out there IF its caught early. Make sure to get a screening ASAP.
Colon cancer grows very slowly, and catching it early is paramount so testing is key. Otherwise, it is a horrible way to die…
Just do it. I’ve had 3 so far, not a big deal at all.
Had gastro-, endo- and colonoscopy done in the past 5 weeks, all good. Not a great experience, but I’m real glad it’s done.
