Reason #5 You Never Want Colon Cancer

Reason #5
You’ll be trying to convince everyone you know to get a colonoscopy for the rest of your life.

And let me tell you, this is NOT easy. Oh the excuses you’ll hear when you try to encourage those who divulge their personal health “issues” to you to go ahead and get scoped, much less those who are over age 50 and need it anyway. It’s almost easier to sell vacuums door to door. But the burden of knowing it’s importance on a personal level will be so heavy, you’ll do it anyway.

Side Note:
I’ll be doing this later today as I speak at a “National Dress in Blue Day” open house! Feel free to stop by if you’re in the area and say hello!
What: Open House for “National Dress in Blue Day”
Where: Midwest Gastroenterology, 3601 NE Ralph Powell Rd., Lees Summit, MO 64064
Time: 5-7pm (I’ll be speaking a little after 6pm)

Chemo Brain

Yep, it’s true. If you’ve had chemo, there’s a chance you’ve experienced chemo brain somewhere along the way. ACS explains it well here.

Reason #3 You Never Want Colon Cancer

Reason #3
You will inevitably fart during ab workouts. Every. Time.

If you’re colon’s been shortened or nearly removed, it gets harder and harder to hold in the flatulence as you’re crunching, twisting and turning all of the core muscles. When I go to the boxing gym, I try to stand around all guys so everyone assumes it was one of them.

Reason #2 You Never Want Colon Cancer

You’ll have to get used to going #1 and #2 every morning when you wake up.
This one’s pretty self-explanatory.
