- Wait at least 2 months before reposting
- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca
- Merkitse K18-sisältö tarpeen mukaan

Damn, that's rough. How old are you (range is fine) if you don't mind me asking? I'm in my mid-30s and thinking about trying to get my Doctor to get one covered for me.
56, I started having problems with anemia last year, doc ran it to see where my blood was vanishing to, found 17 polyps but no cancer.
But the rule of thumb is, if they find more than one, you come back and do it again.
6 more + stage 2 cancer.
It didn't make it out of the colon though, so the surgery got it all. I just don't have a sigmoid colon anymore.
So, yeah prep sucks, but get checked!
Appreciate you sharing that info with me. I'll get checked.
