My PCP is pushing for me to get a colonoscopy. Ordinarily I'd go with it, but I'm wondering about the wisdom of it at this point because of autonomic irregularities, problems with anesthetics in the past, yadda, yadda, yadda.
My gut (maybe I should say "instinct") says that with no family history, the risk of having a problem from the procedure is higher than the risk of having the cancer and missing early diagnosis. However, I'm not at all knowledgeable about this.
What have other ME/CFS patients decided about having a routine colonoscopy?
