Why are Hispanics Less Likely to Screen for Colon Cancer?
Colon cancer screening rates are significantly lower among Hispanic Americans over 50, and Hispanic Americans are more likely to be diagnosed with colon cancer in advanced stages.

I had both a colonoscopy and the one that goes down your throat with another scope. I had to do the split days for drinking the laxative since my appointment time was in the early afternoon. I point this out because this is the first time that the colonoscopy could not be completed on me because too much fecal matter blocked the view. I don’t know if it was the 2 day laxative thing or the different type of laxative (I had the 2 six oz bottles) but I did everything by the instructions and it wasn’t enough. However all of the people at Redding Endoscopy Center did an excellent, professional and friendly job!
