    Wow scarey. I know personally when I had the colonoscopy I had a complete blockage, the sample they got and sent to pathology showed it was precancerous. The didn't have a clue what was going on after that biopsy.

    i will discuss this with my doctor who
    pushes the ctc test, which is personalised and molecular.
