Guest guest Posted October 30, 2005 Report Share Posted October 30, 2005 Thanks! Even after the shock we got last year, I am not too worried about the colonscopy and I really don't know why. When they came out last year and told me he had cancer, I was totally blown away because the thought that they would find something NEVER crossed my mind. After all, he was having a colonscopy because he was over 50. He is doing the clean out this time with the visicol tablets. They said it was easier so I hope so. Thanks again, MA Re: Colon cancer/Ann In a message dated 10/29/2005 9:26:37 PM Eastern Standard Time, m_womack@... writes: Jolene: Don't you have some breathing/lung problems.
