Seriously though, glad you made it through that scare and things are looking good. I've got my colon screening coming up in April and cases like yours might indicate why those are important.

Preach... early detection is always key. I got regular frequent screenings and still developed it. I suspect it may have come from radiation treatment I got 6 years ago, even though they say it doesn't. I had a nice size mass develop under a year, benign at first but then came back in less than a year. You never know... get checked regularly. It's cheaper and less invasive as what I've just gone through.
