[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Please get your colonoscopies! 45 with no family history, younger if you you have a history.[/quote]

James got his. Feels like you are blaming him.[/quote]

I don’t believe he got them as he should have:

- he was unaware that the screening age had dropped from 50 to 45

- he had changes in his bowel habits and attributed it to caffeine intake rather than speaking to a physician[/quote]

What?

Who cares if he knew the screening age if he still got one at what turned out to be the recommended screening age?

[b]People have changes in bowel habits for myriad reasons. [/b]I hope you don’t suggest that one go running to the doctor or for a colonoscopy as the first step every time? In addition to being impractical on a personal level, it’s impractical on a system level.[/quote]

Yes, and one of those can be colon cancer. It's specifically a warning sign that warrants a visit to a doctor.

I'm not posting that to blame Van der Beek for his diagnosis, but because it's apparently something that a lot of people are unaware of.[/quote]
