I’m 47. Get a colonoscopy at 40! Its no big deal. I got stage 4 colon cancer at 47. If I would have gotten one at 40 (tony too)our situations may have been very different.

If they catch the polops they snip em out right during the colonoscopy, (colon has no nerves.. you can’t feel a thing). Even if its stage 1 or 2 cancer they can usually cure you. By stage 4 it has already spread usually to the liver, and your chances are greatly reduced. Get the colonoscopy at age 40. Do it at thirty if there is any trace of colon cancer in your family.

Do it for Tony!

Schwarzeneger, Tony would be very grateful for your encouraging people to get a colonoscopy. The worst part is drinking the stuff beforehand. You’re in a bed waiting, next thing you’re waking up and it’s all over! There is nothing to fear, you don’t feel anything, and it’s the best insurance there is.

Do it for Tony, your loved ones and especially yourself.
