My advice is don't mess around with colorectal cancer tests, get your colonoscopy done.

About time!
The average person has a 4% life time risk.
For those with no risk factors - alcohol, smoking, obesity, poor diet, family history - life time risk is just 2%.
If you get a colonoscopy after age 70, your risk factor for colon injury is 1%.
