No kidding! I'm due for a colonoscopy this year.
I agree, it's absolutely painless, the worst part is the preparation (cleaning out your system), everyone please get screeened
I have always had to drink the liquid…but I have heard some folks are taking pills instead of having to take the drink.
I was twilighted during my last screening a couple of years ago. I'm on the table lying on my side, they're pumping some air to make the path clearer. No pain at all. Next thing I know, I'm in recovery and encouraged to get up and leave.
Shouldn't his insurance cover the cost? Better to donate to more research.
I know Van der Beek had to pay quite a bit out of pocket. I’m skeptical of the money for research to be honest. Plenty has been donated…you have to wonder where all the $$ goes.
I'm 100% doing the pill regiment next time. I'm told its a series of about 30 or so pills. Way better than drinking that awful crap.
How do you know he's insured? If he is insured, how do you know his insurance will cover costs for a 30-something year old man?
I know 2 people who were just diagnosed with cancer, and both had to start a GFM to help cover costs, because insurance isn’t paying for certain treatments.
It’s legit as he’s commented on it. I think the initial goal was around $20k. Last night it was already over $100k.
Yes, this is far beyond the preventive colonoscopy which is typically covered. My bad.
