"For example, I'm 56 and have never had a colonoscopy and I don't intend to get one. If I get colon cancer, then so be it."

You'd rather die than have a tube stuck up your arse for 5 minutes? A colonoscopy is really not that big a deal

Most recent study shows that a colonoscopy does not have any effect on cancer outcomes or early detection.
