[quote=Anonymous]If your GI retired, I am guessing you have had a colonoscopy before? If so, how long ago? Cologuard is a fine screening test. It doesn’t have a high false positive rate as people are describing. It is positive if you have microscopic blood in your stool or DNA from polyps or colon cancer and blood in stool from hemorrhoids is quite common, as are polyps. A Cologuard is not an appropriate test for you because you have a family history of colon cancer. If you have ever had a polyp, you should never do a Cologuard. Just get a colonoscopy.[/quote]
