Everything music

I expressed surprise to nurse she said, no, that's it. then I said well guess first 2 times was pains and this time was cos found something last time .. ? @StuF I thought after a certain age had to have one every 5 years or whatever

ok had quick read , says average risk dont need to have one, but get poo checked every few years til 74 then guess not worth bothering with after that @StuF lolz

I think there is an age-related thing @TAB

But no idea if you're above that yet. Probably different in each state anyway!

I know for me they found polyps- just one or two small ones, nothing to worry about...but it does mean I should be going back sometime 😞

Anyway, so good to have that behind you! Now you can enjoy the weekend hopefully

That's good then @TAB 🙂

ok first one was not old enough and referral was questioned, but they decided to go with it. @StuF 2nd one found and removed stuf etc

yes prob different. def w risk. mates father had whole bowel removed after first check, he has to have ove every 3years forever, oh the age is for National poo in bag and mail it to govt program

@TAB

I guess they at least found your mate's dad's 'early' enough to be able to treat, albeit drastically!

Anyway, I'm looking forward to being old enough to mail my poo to the government!

think govt scheme 55 ok says 50 @StuF yes his sister was in govt health, back in 90s think , said oh why dont you? and he was gone under a year later think, actually from family of 5 only 2 left. only parents gone here so 4/6 still going

Ahh shite @TAB !

I misread your post- I thought your mate's dad had surgery and needed to check every 3 year...but you meant your mate has to do it every 3 years? Sorry about that

nah mates father long gone, had bag for a while then died of cancer @StuF so mate has to get colo every 3 years forever lol

I hope someday there is a better way to do the test @TAB !

In that Billy Connolly colonoscopy sketch I posted a while back he talks about taking pills...none of the nasty cordial business...same 'flushing' result, but easier to get down at least lol
