I’ve used the Cologuard a couple of times. It’s convenient and easy. The test detects DNA markers. I think it’s accuracy is considered to be around 98%.

If you have a history of polyps or cancer in your family your doc would likely insist on a colonoscopy to get that remaining 2% covered but otherwise this test is the way to go.

I share your opinion.
