I hope you don't mind me saying, but that's a silly comment.

I have been doing the poo test for three years now and have completed the survey.

Re: Attitudes towards bowel cancer screening

As I have said previous times, maybe we should consider ourselves lucky that we are offered free testing in this country.

I participate.
Also got the dreaded "Boob Squeeze" next week too. Not looking forward to it one bit!

What can it possibly be about the screening test for bowel cancer that you don't 'trust'?

I'll do it for you Mups!

Seriously, though, my wife has developed an online social networking and information hub for mammography - wommen.org.uk - in which the matter can be freely discussed with health professionals and other interested women (I am told not to refer to them as 'patients'!). It includes a great deal of information and videos, etc. Anyone is welcome to visit it.

Perhaps you could pass these details around amongst anyone else - here or elsewhere - who you think might be interested.
