Screening for Bowel Cancer
Monday, October 5th, 2009Bowel cancer is one of the most insideous of all the cancers that can strike both men and women. The early signs are almost indetectable to the untrained eye and are seldom even noticed by the person affected by the cancer.
While bowel cancer can strike at any age group people over 50 are in a far higher risk group than younger people so don’t think that it can’t happen to you … because it can.
Up until now collecting specimens for a screening test for bowel cancer has been a messy and unpleasant task but now there’s a new method of collection available that removes most of the mess and unpleasantness. Enterix have now produced the Insure Test Kit, a convenient and easy test that requires no faecal handling and no dietary restrictions in the hours leading up to the test.
Anyone can use the kit and once you have used it all you have to do is post it back to the laboratory for analysis. A report is then posted to you and your nominated doctor and it’s that simple.
The kit costs $16.95 … not a great deal when it could mean the difference between life and death.
We’ve got the Insure Screen Test kit in stock right now at Beachside Pharmacy so call in and pick up your kit today!
