What’s an FIT?
FIT is the stool scrape that tests for blood in stool. You scrape a probe on a stool before it hits the water,, stick it in a test tube and drop it off att he lab or mail it in. Uninsured it is from $39-$89.
A weak but protective measure for the intervening 2 years between Cologuard tests.
Point is a 5 year colonoscopy is just a roll of the dice that your colon cancer appears in the year before the test and that the gastroenterologist sees it. If the moon and stars align it is possible that a colonoscopy with perfect timing might see a cancer before it starts shedding DNA or bleeding and appears in Cologuard or FIT but that is unlikely.
