Attention!! Everybody read this!! |
Eddie Robbins |
Hey friends, I just got my colonoscopy report and I want you to pay attention! I had my second colonoscopy 7 years ago and was told that I didn't need one for 10 years. It has been 7 years and I decided to go ahead and have one. I had a polyp that was sent to the lab. It was "pre-cancerous." Had I waited 3 more years, there is no telling what could have happened. I thank God for the prompt to go ahead and have it done. Get your colonoscopy!! |

That's my goal. If you're over 40, do it! |

My point is, don't wait. Had I waited to the time they told me, I may have had cancer and it would have been too late. That is my warning. |

Eddie, does cancer run in your family? WE have lost none to cancer, we prefer early heart attacks.
Serious question. My doctor said that is important. But still keeps after me to have one. I haven't had one yet.  _________________ Some facts but mostly just my opinion!

The deadliest cancer for men is also one of the absolute most preventable/treatable cancers... great thread, Eddie. Everyone needs to make it a habit to get checked routinely. |

No cancer in my family. You need to get your butt, literally, in there and get it done. |

Thanks Eddie, I am really thinking about it... It is sorta like speaking Spanish, if you have never done it, it worries you to try it the first time IN PUBLIC!!  _________________ Some facts but mostly just my opinion!

It should be done at age 40 at the latest. |

Thanks for posting this Eddie. I have been putting it off for quite a while. I have an HSA and your post got me moving and looking for a Gastroenterologist. |

That was my goal. So many people are responding with horror stories of waiting. |
