In this episode, Chloe and Steph discuss Steph's recent colonoscopy and the importance of checking in with our bodies. Steph talks through the process of preparing for a colonoscopy and what happened during & after. If you are due for a screening or have a family history - we implore you to get yourself checked.
Bowel cancer is the second biggest cause of cancer death in Australia. You have an increased risk of bowel cancer as you age. It can develop without any family history and show no signs or symptoms. If it is not found, bowel cancer can spread into the wall of the bowel, lymph nodes (glands) and then to other organs. If found early, 90% of bowel cancers can be successfully treated. Don’t delay, do your bowel cancer test today.
