Yup. You are right and you have that rarest of all attributes; common sense, which is assessing the situation and getting to the bottom line. And speaking of the bottom line..and I have said this before...

You can lead a horse to water but you can't force a hose up his bottom.

Wanna bet? If a Vet can get their arm up there for an exam, then there is nothing holding back a hose!

Screening for colon cancer: When is it needed?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Short answer is Never if you decide your not getting one.

But then you may die of colon cancer. IMHO

OP - Villages Pl has decided to not have one....... nuff said.

You're absolutely right Joe and I wonder if there is any purpose in continuing this thread. Is there anything new to add or are the same comments simply being restated or paraphrased over and over again. Perhaps this thread has fully run it's usefulness and it's time for Mr. Admin to consider closing it! :icon_bored:

Exactly. That is the point of my post.

It seems like a rheotorical question, if someone has no intentional purpose to having this procedure done. We are getting an aerobic exercises for our tongues. :smiley:

Hopefully, this is the "end" of it.

Please Mr. Moderator, please end this thread even though I am not the original poster.

I found some important information I think everyone should read: (Perhaps someone could provide a link for it.)

Search the following: "Death By Colonoscopy: Side Effects of Screening Colonoscopies"

The bottom line of this information is: Your chances of dying from colonoscopy screening may exceed your chances of getting colon cancer.

Also, there's a book on this subject: "Should I Be Tested For Cancer? - Maybe Not And Here's Why" by Dr. Welch

This thread seems to have outlived its original intent and will be closed.

One can always start a new thread with a new topic or new information regarding this topic.
