LYC: Looks like I'm going to be scheduling a colonoscopy in a few months

Fun fun!

Mainly a precaution. Doc said there's an 85-90% chance that nothing is wrong.

- I don't think colonoscopies are supposed to be annual and they don't start being recommended until you are older (50 I think). -- nm - pmb Feb 3, 07:56 5
  - It all depends on family history. -- nm - Strongbad Feb 3, 07:57 4
    - Yeah, my dad is a colon cancer survivor. -- nm - nubby Feb 3, 07:59 1
      - GF's mother is also. -- nm - Strongbad Feb 3, 08:00
    - I was focusing on general guidelines. Family histories certainly will dictate different treatment. -- nm - pmb Feb 3, 07:58
