How Reliable is the Test?
Screening finds many non-cancerous polyps and colorectal cancers, but no screening test is perfect.
Regular screening offers the best chance of detecting the early signs of cancer, which is why it is important to enroll in Colon Check. It is also important, even if you have had a normal result, to monitor your own health and see your health care provider immediately if you have:
- Blood in your stool
- Changes in your bowel habits
- Abdominal pain
