Anyone have a Cologuard false negative?

Colonoscopy still the best screening… more people might do it—but insurance may/may not cover it for everyone…the prep is no fun, but better than it used to be…my PCP doesn’t like Cologuard….as someone who got CRC, I truly recommend people to do it…they can snip polyps before they become cancerous, a lot easier than getting CRC ! The technology keeps getting better at catching things sooner, sparing a lot of suffering .

@nycmusic I always wanted to do the test at home but the doctor didn’t trust them, along with false positives and negatives you could think you’re good to go but later they find cancer. Also, they are able to remove any polyps during the colonoscopy so that’s a big plus, I just find that the prep is brutal.
