I went to a new doctor last week for a hand issue, and when the nurse left the room, my medical chart was left open on the computer screen. There, in a 2 inch by 1 inch block in the top, right corner in large, bold letters, it said PATIENT REFUSED. I always figured my refusal of the jab was displayed somewhere because I could always tell the doctor’s reaction to me. But the size of this literally screamed to any doctor that I had not complied. I almost felt violated with the size emphasis to make sure no medical person ever misses that I bucked their order. It fully taints any trust or relationship I have or could have with that medical person.

You might consider a baseline by 50, sooner if family members have had colon cancer. My mother did and this is one exam I get every 5 years and have had polyps removed. Colonoscopies aren’t fun, but they are a major lifesaver.
Have your doctors ever tried to figure out why you got polyps or do they say you did because your mother did and don't question it?
