I applaud your bravery. So many men refuse the recommended colonoscopy at age 50. At least they should get one by age 60 if they know what's good for them. Two of my friend's husbands, who refused the colonoscopy suggestion, made them rich widows after being diagnosed with colon cancer Stage 3. Too late. It's usually metastasized by then. Good article and I hope it is seen by many anti colonoscopiers. (that's not a word 😂).
