You friend might give treatments a chance but that's his choice. Sorry that your longtime friend has this terrible disease **** cancer. Its probably time to lower the age for recommended colonoscopies to 40. My cousin was diagnosed at 46 yo and had noticed blood in his stool for many months. He shrugged off as Hemorrhoids mostly out of fear he said. In reality he told me he knew something wasnt right as he was totally fatigued all the time where getting up after sitting was a effort instead he was very anemic.

This is where I am at. I had my first colonoscopy last February, no issues. Recently large amounts of blood in the stool. No waiting for me. They want to get a second colonoscopy soon, tested positive for Fecal Lactoferrin. Not easy to go through all this alone LoneWolf. Use your network of friends/family to help you get through this.
