Recent research has shown pre-emptive colonoscopies don't reduce mortality rates.

Poo tests are much better without the risks.

    That was the argument my wife was giving me six years ago. The stool tests she took showed nothing. She died two weeks ago after a grueling battle with rectal cancer. You're not going to convince me.

    I'm so sorry for your loss. I think it's the top killer for adults. I've got the gene but they won't let me test before 45 (I'm 43). I'm gonna try the poo tests until insurance lets me do a colonoscopy. Take this stuff seriously folks, advocate for yourselves.
