Don't skip a colonoscopy.

It's too important to catch it early, and if you have a family history of colon cancer, it's good to stay on top of it.

I had my first this year. Can't say it was fun, but it wasn't anywhere nearly as bad as I feared it would be. And I was digestive trouble at the time.

Your life is too important to skip such an important and effective screen.

I have to have one soon.

I was OK on my first one, but have had some really elusive food allergy problems and there are some tests that they can run, with biopsies, to check for certain conditions.

That is why I changed my gastro. Not doing that conscious in any way, shape, or form.

Not looking forward to clean out day cause I’m allergic to so much, I don’t know how I’ll react to the Pedialyte or the clean out stuff.
