i wish you well, i'm 52 and had my first colonoscopy when i was 40 at my parents request, and got rid of 2 polups and i got screened every 2 yrs. and at 50, two polups were found, it was stage 2 cancer, so i lost one third of my colon, one year later more cancer polups, so i lost the rest of the colon, except for the sigmoid and rectum and no chemo or radiation, and no bag, according to the doctors and my oncologyst, getting screened saved my life, so don't be shy, just get it done.. peace
