Well I have had 1 colonoscopy and it will be the LAST ONE! No need for it. So the ‘docs’ will tell you you had some polyps (which most older adults do), that they ‘removed’ and to come back in 5 years. No mention of a diet or lifestyle changes that could be implemented to mitigate the formation of said polyps. All this regular ‘diagnostic testing’ is one GIANT ‘revenue generating’ scam. For the doctors, hospitals and ‘clinics’ that do these ‘Scans’.
So what will you do if they tell you that you have colon cancer...will you begin immediate radiation and chemo treatment and totally ‘f**k up your body?
I am a 70 year old healthy woman and I am done with all that ‘testing’...mammograms, bone density scans, colonoscopies, et al.
Amen, sister! I had one colonoscopy at 45 because I worked in endoscopy in the past. I had no polyps or diverticulum. I’ve since learned that a flexible sigmoidoscopy is as effective at finding cancers but not as risky for perforation. I had a friend who was perforated and suffered terribly with peritonitis and nearly died after having this happen!
It’s not worth it! I also tried the mammogram thing, but due to Lt breast reduction, they did that one twice. Then did an ultrasound. It’s scar tissue from the surgery! Anyway, the next year, same story: mammogram, repeat mammogram, repeat sonogram... But this time I could see a brightening of the scar tissue from the previous year. I decided that maybe irradiating my left breast 4 times in two years wasn’t a good idea!
I vowed never again.
I’ll have a thermogram of my whole body one of these days. Then I’ll repeat it in three months. Then annually. It’s very accurate unlike mammograms

Right there with you. Can't believe we bought into it (literally) for all those years. Our eyes have been opened and we are now free.

Thermography is amazing!
If men had to have their penis smashed every year between two metal plates with some radiation mixed in - this mammogram garbage would have ended!
Our American “hell”thcare “system” is becoming very scary.
Thankful for genuine emergency help & intervention. The rest is mostly for money & profit driven by the corporatist system.

I hope it is only a bleeding polyp. It is scheduled for Apr 11th, so if you see me on here, you can ask and I will tell you what happened.
I will definitely not take their cancer fixing/causing drugs, but have a plan.
Thanks, appreciated...
