The new test could increase the number of people screened for colorectal cancer, especially among adults too young for routine colonoscopies.

    The procedure isn’t too bad, also, they send you home stoned as balls. But the prep is awful. You have to starve and shit yourself to death, so you’re out of commission from that as well. I’d heartily approve a blood test in lieu of all that.

      My gastro uses propofol. When they wake you up, you are wide awake. No stoned as balls over here, alas.
