Hospitals make a shitload of money off these screenings.
Makes Covid 19 treatment look like small potatoes re $’s to hospitals running Colorectal cancer screening.
Saved my husband. His doctor said he would have gotten cancer.
My best friend died of colon cancer when she was around 60. Sweetest woman I’ve ever known.
We had a an elderly loved one die of colo-rectal cancer that was caught too late. She was elderly when diagnosed. And there was zero family history.
That particular cancer is the second leading cancer cause of death in the US.
Screenings are worth the investment.
Not just hospitals...
My gastro guys site has at least 20 prep/recovery bed stations and they’ve been at about full capacity in the time I spent there. Size comparable to big hospital OR.
Pill cam for small intestine is an amazing thing...like a large gel cap with video cam transmitter...swallow, they get the pictures and later down the toilet it goes. Totally pain and discomfort free.
