I am only 41, but I decided, due to the prevalence of cancer in my mother's side of the family, to have a voluntary Occult Blood Test. Came back positive to 2 of the 3 probes.

1 week later I was drinking that gad-awful laxative (I did it in ONE go each time,rather than drinking it over an hour or so), then into the day surgery.

GLAD I DID IT!

Moderately advanced, benign adenoma of the sigmoid colon. Removed via snare in situ. Doctor said I was one VERY lucky person, as even another year could have been BAD ju ju. They initially put me down for a 5 year review, but recently amended that to 3 years. Stuff that, I am having another in 12 months!

Oh, larger mount eh. Tak NJP do? Contact me if it is of interest. Rather not mention it here, seems to cause no end of calamity with some people.
