I have a personal experience to relate that can put this in context. In early2015 I was diagnosed with stage II colon cancer.The diagnosis resulted from, initially, a blood test that indicated I had a dangerously low hemoglobin level. My doctor ordered a stool test which turned out positive for blood. Then I had a colonoscopy that established the existence of the cancer, which was successfully operated on about two weeks later. Right now I have two thirds of a colon, no indication of cancer, and am still able to use my God-given disposal facilities.

All of that says this new blood test could be really something, something very good, like a PSA test. I wish the best of luck to anyone who’s invested in this particular company.

Exactly the same here. At each colonoscopy now, I tell the doctor that I'm entitled to a discount because he doesn't have as much to inspect. No luck so far.
