Get a Colonoscopy if you are 45 or older. I had 8 polyps in my colon when I had mine and it may have saved my life.

Good advice. I had one colon polyp removed 10 years ago.

Get stool DNA testing. It is much safer. And cheaper.

And, polyps don’t mean squat unless they are cancerous. In fact, there is a lot of evidence that polyps are removed because of the differential medicare and insurance reimbursement rates.

Is there an upper age limit for colonoscopies?

Asking for myself.
