My son was diagnosed with cancerous polyps in 2019 at the age of 49. His surgeon told him the polyps were so big, that he wished he had come to see him 10 years earlier, but they don’t usually screen people for colon cancer at the age of 39. Had he been screened all those years earlier, he may never have gotten cancer.
I hope he is doing better.
Several months ago I had a colorectal test come back positive so I had a colonoscopy and had 3 large polyps removed. Fortunately they were not cancerous but now I actually wish I had had a colonoscopy sooner.
