Cons:
Not as accurate.
Can't determine what you have.

I have colonoscopy every 3 years, same as Cologuard. They developed the Cologuard to get people to screen since so many don't.

Yes, but no harm getting one in between colonoscopy. Mine was accurate. My G.I. doctor told me one of three possibilities with test- can show cancer, polyps or nothing is wrong.

I am on 3-year recall also, have history of polyps. Better to bite the bullet and get the colonoscopy which is the gold standard.
