I know of too many younger adults both who have been diagnosed with and have died from colon cancer. One was 43. <br /><br />But yes, when I know people who are putting off their colonoscopy because they are too busy or it is "too icky' I always think, believe me, cancer is a lot worse. In the long run of life a colonoscopy is not a big deal. I'm grateful too, that even tho expensive I have insurances that covers preventative measures at 100% and I hope you to, too. <br /><br />jmsJodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14311014636548513060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-315151022752951218.post-9634108341309490362012-05-14T12:57:11.267-05:002012-05-14T12:57:11.267-05:00Welcome back to the blogosphere, Jody!

You've done your fellow breast cancer sisters a huge service. I would LOVE a biomarker test to check for colon cancer. Next year I'm scheduled for my second colonoscopy and I'm not looking forward to it at all. But do it, I must, especially with my history of two bouts with breast cancer. <br /><br />I hope more women close to the study centers will participate in clinical trials as a result of reading your post. xxJanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10859603179029359430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-315151022752951218.post-84719105777583108842012-05-13T16:50:19.243-05:002012-05-13T16:50:19.243-05:00Every time I hear that another person has colon ca...Every time I hear that another person has colon cancer, I'm saddened and angry. It's not enough to just be aware that it's the easiest cancer to prevent. We must actually get a colonoscopy. Whether it's embarrassment or fear, we all need to make others aware of the importance of colonoscopies. <br /><br />Thanks for becoming part of the clinical study.

We can hope and pray that this test works out - and it's awesome that we can laugh and be grown-ups, all at once.#pooreport<br /><br /><br />Thanks too, Nancy. In a perfect world no topic will ever be too delicate to discuss. Anywhere we have cells we can have cancer. The embarrassment is ours and it is ours to undo. There are too many still paralyzed by cancer stigma. We need to keep talking on every level to get all topics out in the open.Jodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14311014636548513060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-315151022752951218.post-84374492813279365612012-05-09T11:41:55.602-05:002012-05-09T11:41:55.602-05:00Jody, THANK YOU for this.

But you know how I feel about discussing delicate topics! A blood test for colon cancer detection would be so wonderful. I had a colonoscopy last summer and the prep was miserable, no surprise there. I'm so sorry to read about Pat Steer. I will check out her post. Thanks for writing this one and thanks for being part of a clinical trial.Nancy's Pointhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07646849408841387692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-315151022752951218.post-43250832401084405572012-05-08T07:56:09.177-05:002012-05-08T07:56:09.177-05:00Thanks so much Nick.

I didn't even begin to discuss all the different kinds of trials there are, from those as simple as filling out a questionnaire to the one that Steve participated in, which was testing the development of a melanoma vaccine. It's an incredible process and a huge concept for survivors to get their arms around. Frankly, you can spend hours on www.clinicaltrials.gov just trying to find one where you MIGHT match. There would be great business potential for an enterprising individual to serve as a clinical trial recruiter/navigator....<br /><br />Thanks so much for writing. I hope your father is doing well.

Also, kudos to you for taking part in a study! You are right, they are hard to get into, move very slow and usually aren't accommodating - although it sounds like your experience is quite positive. <br /><br />When my dad was thinking through his treatment options, one of the things the researchers drilled in was that his protocol would likely be the same as the study. The benefit of the study, in his case, was not try something new, but to add science and measures around the protocol for future patients to be able to judge the effectiveness. <br /><br />So in the end, it's really about paying it forward. Wether you are helping create a new DX test or validating an existing protocol, it's going to help someone else, and that's pretty cool!Nick Dawsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03447294705205856815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-315151022752951218.post-61617748730980608222012-05-07T21:23:24.030-05:002012-05-07T21:23:24.030-05:00Jody, good for you.

Or even a not at home one. Anything but the dreaded colonoscopy. And you know how I feel about them, now hugely grateful that I had one & that it took out a polyp with in-situ cancer.<br /><br />I just tried to get to that link from Pat & it didn't work. :( I'm sorry to hear that she has come to the big decision.
