Visual inspection of turds is useless for detecting bowel cancer. It can however give visual clues to the posibility of bowel cancer Nope, when you can see anything in the turds, its MUCH too late. Rubbish. Fact with the BOWEL CANCER being discussed. Thousands of people detect a trace of blood from a duodenal ulcer, IBS, colitis, or diverticulosis and subsequently are found not to have cancer. Irrelevant to the BOWEL CANCER being discussed. |

I don't think Tony does that sort of thing. It is useful for visible blood. Which is much too late for viable bowel cancer detection. Nope. Any blood in faeces is a warning sign of something wrong. Wrong, as always. Its usually just haemorrhoids. Read on... Sometimes if its bright red it can be simple piles AKA Haemorrhoids, Normally, not sometimes. Got there in the end. but a duller shade usually means its come from higher up the digestive tract. But when its visible, its much too late for viable bowel cancer detection.. Nope. So any blood in faeces is a warning and should be checked out as soon as possible But when its visible, its much too late for viable bowel cancer detection.. Nope. especially if your male and over 50 or any history of bowel cancer in your family.. But when its visible, its much too late for viable bowel cancer detection.. Nope. THere are even a number of *Australian* sites http://www.abc.net.au/health/library...04/1829066.htm that are quite clear that bowel cancer can be detected by visible blood in the stools. MBQ |

A diet high in chicken and fish instead doesn't smell very much at all; you can leave a bathroom and no-one knows you've had a poo. Each person's particular mix of gut bacteria also makes a big difference to their "bathroom aroma", and that's more affected by chance and your genetics than your diet. There have been several interesting articles in New Scientist recently on gut flora - still not well understood but crucial to good health. "Foecal transplants" have been very successful in treating chronic disorders like colitis where nothing else has helped. -- Reentrant |

A diet high in chicken and fish instead doesn't smell very much at all; you can leave a bathroom and no-one knows you've had a poo. Why is it that arriving home after a quick pint in my local pub STWNFI takes one sniff and knows where I have been. Its the same with my staff if they have just come back from the chip shop, MacDonalds, or been out for a smoke I can tell by the lingering smell. Even the smell of oil from the workshop (particularly EP90) lingers on clothing. Yet return from the bog after the foulest smelling dump and nothing! Mike |

Its needed to provide a clear view for the colonscope witch is a lighted tube thats passed thru the anus up the bowel to see what's there. If indeed it does find a polyp they can then use an inbuilt wire snare to snip it out and well .. job done... They can then analyse the polyp removed and see what it was or might have been up to;!. They are normally very slow growing. -- Tony Sayer |

The packet strongly implied the reaction would be within an hour or two. In my case, nothing happened until about 9 hours later (and then it was dramatic) but it was also very close to the time I had to leave the house to get to the clinic, which made me quite nervous! I did comment on this & the staff said my experience wasn't all that uncommon. -- Jeremy C B Nicoll - my opinions are my own. Email sent to my from-address will be deleted.

Believe me, I know what I'm talking about, for colonoscopy a general is not required. Nor is Fleet the usual prep, phosphate enemas are usually used. I suspect that if you have experienced Fleet + general that they went a lot higher than the colon and had a poke around the small bowel as well. |
