Already have had X3. Colon cancer killed my Dad and it wasn't a pretty sight, so, if you've put off having the ‘scope’, please make an appointment and git ‘er done.

Got’er done a few years ago. Scary results that end up with me rushed to and admitted to a hospital that morning. Blockage that the Dr. was afraid could be cancer, turned out after an extensive opperation to be non cancerous. Wooo Hooo! Have had two colonoscopies since and all was good! Spent a week in the hospital after the surgery and months recovering at home. Walking and other activity was very painful. I am free and clear and the next test is two years down the road. Damn nasty stuff to drink ( force down) the day before!

I had my 4th colonoscopy last Sept. All was well, again. My grandmother died of colon cancer so I am not about to let it sneak up behind me! ha ha! :D
