Having a Screening Colonoscopy

Colon cancer is being diagnosed more frequently in younger people. It's now recommended that most people get a screening colonoscopy at the age of 45. For people who have a family history of colon cancer, the first screening should be when they are 10 years younger than the family member was when they were diagnosed. My guest is my husband, Michael Tresca, who recently had a screening colonoscopy after turning 50. He details his experiences in using a newer prep and how he managed the process. If there is a person in your life that is due for their screening, I hope you'll share this with them. And if you're someone who is involved in administering screening colonoscopies, I hope you'll listen to get an unfiltered perspective.
