I can assure you it was very stressful for me, can't imagine what it was like for him. He accused of a hot lap and going back around, but the truth is I wanted to see my buddy up and moving around. But don't tell him, I got a rep to maintain.
A great product, but it's not a full replacement. Part of a Colonoscopy is to check for polyps, and if there are any to remove them. They are usually where the cancer starts so getting rid of them when they first show up is a great preventative measure. I didn't have any thankfully. Cologuard will be a great option for someone like me that isn't going to have another Colonoscopy for 7 years.

Ok, so now that I have everyone's attention.
Go get your physical. If I can do it with all my doctor/dentist phobias you certainly can. Look at it this way, if you don't do it that makes me smarter than you. Can you really live with that? (pun intended)
