Colon Cancer check. Heard about the fecal occult blood test?.

Did you receive a letter from "Screen for life" Cancer care Ontario?.

Says after age 50 your risk of getting the disease grows etc... The FOBT is a safe and painless screening test that checks your stool for tiny drops of blood. If Colon Cancer is caught early, 9 out of 10 people with the disease can be cured.

I got it 2 months ago and cannot get my ass to get on it.

Maybe it's time to do it but is there other ways to know you may have it?.

Done it and those over 50 should make it a priority.

I had it done. An easy procedure but you do need to take the day off.

Are we thinking of the same test? I do it every year, thanks to my doctor. I don't have to take a minute off work or anything else. You put a sample on a card for three days running, then drop it in the mail. They send me and my doctor the results a few days later.

It saved a friend of mine's life. I highly recommend you take the time to send your sample.
