Late to this party, regret setting in. Was suggested to get a Colonoscopy
due to a few weeks of blood in stool with no history of other GI problems.
Was skeptical but didn’t do my homework beforehand. In October 2014 got a
clean bill of colon health from the colonoscopy. Fast forward to January
2015 (3 months later).
Lots of stomach and colon problems with nausea, bloody bowel movements to
mention a few. After 2 months I went to an gastro specialist that
recommended another colonoscopy.
LOTS of problems found this time around; doctor was amazed and what had
transpired in such a short period of time. Preliminary diagnosis is
Crohns, Colitis etc. In short, large bowel is a mess. Moderate to severe.
Hmmmm….coincidence?
Found this guys web site (seen above) and read the article “side effects of
screening colonoscopy”. Made perfect sense. The mixture required to drink
prior to treatment itself could easily be responsible for my current
problems. And thats only one of several things that could cause my “real”
problems now. Really hoping a few people read this before getting
theirs done. I find it fascinating that these videos only have 13000
hits after 6 years of being up. DO YOUR HOMEWORK BEFORE HAND!!!!!!!!!!!!
Re: Georgio 0900: If you’re an epidemologist you’re a piss-poor one. You
state as an unequivocal fact that the risk of someone dying from colorectal
cancer is 1:16.
Nonesense. That number includes individuals of both sexes, all ethnic
backgrounds, does not include the presence or absence of risk factors, etc.
Years ago physicians were mandating routine PSA testing for men over 40
UNTIL a 20-year longitudinal Swiss study suggested you had to screen 200
men to save one life.
As an example of your questionable assertion, the lifetime risk of
developing a cancer in an invasive site is .25–if you believe the US
National Cancer Institute’s Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results
(SEER) Database. IF you believe the NHI’s Surveillance, Epidemiology, and
End Results Program, colorectal cancer accounts for about .11 of all cancer
deaths. That would suggest a porpability of .0275 from dying of colon
cancer, specifically, or about 1:33–and that’s without taking into account
certain risk factors.
And Billybad 905: That’s pretty much what they said about Semmelweise who
found the cause of childbed fever. F Scott Fitzgerald said the sign of an
enlightened intellect was that one could howld two conflicting thoughts in
his mind at the same time. If you were intellectually honest, you would
merely try to sort out the data without making personality an issue–which
is what one does when they are too lazy
to refute an argument with data.
Gee! thanks, I thought they used a little camera to go inside your rectum?
I have pictures of the inside of my intestine showing two diverticula and I
was asleep when they did this so I thought it was not X ray? I having
problems with my diverticulitis now and I have an appointment coming and I
was going to take a colonoscopy. Are you sure all colonoscopies are done
with Xray? I refuse their mamograms, I already have so much X rays done
because of my bone fractures and dental work. Thanks!
Good points. However, as per the National Cancer Institute, the quote is
taken in a certain context. The indication is that there is no proof that
colonoscopy (exam of colon/large intestine ) is more effective than
sigmoidoscopy (screening of just lower colon).
thanks
U r really just a self important asshole
I second this comment. Radiation, even at very high doses, potentially life
threatening if acute, is a rather weak carcinogen as demonstrated by very
long term studies of the survivors of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Since no
radiation is involved in colonoscopy, your discussion of radiation in this
context is a clear attempt to alarm the viewers. You should be ashamed, and
I personally have nothing but scorn for you.
