@frouke That happened to me. Been getting negative Cologuards for a few years, had colonoscopy last December and discovered stage IV rectal cancer.

I’m truly sorry this happened to you, it didn’t need to happen but sometimes we put too much trust in the medical profession. I just had a colonoscopy today and it wasn’t too bad, the preparation is unpleasant but colon cancer is much worse and the suffering you go through is much more severe, I have read that colon cancer is rising and especially with the younger generation, the diets eaten and sitting too much are a big factor for this. I know that when I was younger I took more risks and didn’t think about the consequences, payback is a bitch. I have to deal with cancer now and it’s an evil disease that wants to destroy us and you’re never the same person again, I think that wisdom comes along late in life and then no one wants to hear what you have to say, I pray that you have the best of care and regain your health because you deserve it.

@vcsongradi So sorry to hear about that. You should sue them. What's the point in having the screening, if it didn't serve the purpose? It's meant to identify the problem.
