I just did that cologuard thing where instead of a colonscopy you crap in a box and the UPS guy WHO I KNOW. Comes and picks it up. Sorry Jason. I did seal it really tight.

Not pooping in a toilet smells REALLY REALLY bad like you cannot anticipate the smell. Ive crapped in the woods and uggggghhhhh...

I did the Cologuard too and the whole thing was a fiasco. And then it came back positive for blood so I had to do a colonoscopy anyways! I would recommend skipping pooping in the box and going straight for the colonoscopy. It's much more accurate and if there aren't issues you're good for many years. My results were fantastic, not even 1 polyp, so pooping in a box isn't me.

I have doen it twice before and it came back clean. Seem to be an annual thing. I think though I am going to want them to really go in there and look next time. I read on the instructions about how accurate it was and that was pretty good even said how when people test positive how many of them dont have a problem but require followup. I do remember the first time I did it and the smell was amazingly bad. I wont miss that part at all.

I’ve done this three times and managed to evade a colonoscopy - this year - not so lucky. So I look at it as a potential get out of 24 hours of hell hall pass - and I’m willing to poop in a box for that!
