The CRISP info is suspect. It talks about the risk of death from a colonoscopy as if it is greater than anything. The reality (that the Aussies even provide) is that there are 19/100,000 deaths in 5 years with the faecal blood test alone. There are 23/100,000 in 5 years with a colonoscopy. Very little difference.

When I had colo-rectal cancer in 1996, my oncologist reminded me that those figures include everyone with the cancer, most of whom are old to start with. The chances of a 70-year old person dying in 5 years tend to be high to start with.

I was 42 when I had cancer, and I met a guy in the treatment center with the same oncologist and diagnosis who was 28. He had every side-effect under the sun, while I had only diahreaa.
