I’ve received a letter inviting me to a bowel scope ( invitation for everyone between 55-56) whereas I attend mammogram
and smears I feel quite reluctant to do this.I understand the idea behind it but it does seem that it could be unnecessarily intrusive with potential problems coming from any damage to the bowel itself. plus I have to give myself an enema first!
I’m a size 10,fit,don’t smoke or drink etc -does anyone have any experience of this( I know I should go but...)
Thanks
