Two quick comments…..1. If you take the Cologuard test and it comes back positive your DR will recommend a colonoscopy to verify the results of the test. Some insurances will only pay for one screening test (the Cologuard) and not for the colonoscopy since now it’s called a diagnostic test. Also, according to my DR the accuracy of the Cologuard test is about 85% where a colonoscopy is near 100%. 2. The risk of death from the procedure is so minuscule that to me it’s worth the risk and peace of mind knowing my colon is free from polyps that can grow and develop into cancer.

What is the best treatment

Not here in Canada unfortunately.

I have been diagnosed with mild to moderate centriblar emphazema by CT scan . Dr hasn't sent me for pulmonary function test or to respiratory rehabilitation WHY ?

I am 71...5 years ago i was diagnosed with severe COPD , it was then i started practising BUTEyko.. 4 years ago i stopped taking ALL medications....i rarely cough.. i rarely have phlem ...and i feel Great!

My Colon guard I tested positive, I’m terrified

So, how reliable is a cologuard? In older patients, over 75 is it necessary?

Some claim end stage is at stage 4. Some claim it at atage 3. I'm suffering a slow and agonizing death. Most in up with upper respiratory infections. Or drown themselves with to much albuterol summon nebulizers responsive along with moisture to Chromecast being put into their concentrators. Many of them I just put in tap water and they're moisturizers to their concentrators

Is a fit test the same thing the one that you get in the doctors office and you smear the stool then you bring it back to the doctors office do they test that the same way as they do colorguard?

I have been using cologuard for a few years always negative, but I also do a fit test that I get from my primary provider just to make sure they both come out the same results

The dr said my son had end stage lung disease. He did not expand upon this so this has been very scary for me. My son totally glossed over the “end stage” part and didn’t even notice the Dr said it but I caught what was said. He got TB 10 years ago and now only has part of one lung left. The dr nor the nurse will tell me what they think his life span will be. So I just spend as much time as I can with him. He has been on oxygen 24/7 for 2 years now. Before that it was on as needed basis, but not used often. Then he got cat scratch fever and that did him in because he did not go to the dr, he though he could heal himself with colloidal silver. Now he has a hole in his side he has to pack everyday.

People always talk about smoking,,,we know that,,,,what is co2,,,,i have copd ,,,i m loss weight,,,why

Good vid. You should have more subscribers.

Emphysema " SUCK'S" I'm having more flare-ups. When it hits it feels like I'm dying. I got another Lung function test on 12/18/23 I'm sure it has gotten worse. not sure If I can make it till I have doctor-assisted suicide. Just hope I can end my suffering, Myself before respiratory failure kills me.

What caused cot to progress like that suddenly

Giving hope ! Thank you for this video !

Had the cologaurd test, came back positive, gotta get a colonoscopy, so just skip cologaurd and have the colonoscopy you will have to have one anyway

Take a look at the numbers of false positives results with Cologuard. Why do most doctors fail to tell you of a Colography? No enesthesia or having to drink a ton of laxatives. The scam can diagnose everything that a colonoscopy does and more. I was an autopsy tech for 10 years and one thing that I've learned is to get a second opinion. Medicine is a business in the US. Talk about a mafia. Ask how many colons get perforated in a colonoscopy? To give you an idea. I had high cholesterol and was put on statins. Talk about getting sick from them. My PCP was giving me all this medical crap about plaque and dying. In three months my levels were back to normal. Was it the meds? No it wasn't. It was cutting out all red meat and taking fiber and exercising. On my annual checkup he looks at me and tells me how well the medicine had worked. Here's the surprise i gave him. A had a bag with over twenty bottles of statins with me which i poured of his desk. He couldn't believe it and wanted to know how i had done it. I personally don't trust most of them. Be careful or perhaps your death certificate could read " Medically induced death."

Just know that your Dr. maybe giving your phone number & email address to Cologuard & they will be calling, texting, emailing you all kinds of crap (pun intended). If I knew they were getting all this info about me, I would have done the colonoscopy.

I get many ambulance bills

My husband has fought it for 20 years He's already been on a lung tube he's been on oxygen many years

I have copd don’t know what stage don’t want to know. I’ve seen men overcome it by exercising like --. So I started exercising just like they are doing. I’m seeing great results I use a form of bicycle machine👍. It has very large foot pedals and a very comfy seat with back support🦯I ride for2500 steps. Using pulmonary taught breaths . I kick it fairly hard. I’ve been doing it every other day for a month now. People try this if you are not doing very well and if capable of course. Get active with something that challenges your body and lungs

Praying for a healing for everyone try cannabis oil and thc for cancer and worm medicine for pigs or dogs to kill cancer amen

It took a month to get the test, a month to get the results which were possitve, another month just to meet the gastroenterologist which took about 3 minutes and cost 300$, and another 2 months for the procedure. I'm a week away from the procedure and wondering if a cancer is growing and the lack of urgency by the doctor.

I have been fighting copd for 19 years and at this stage i have very severe copd with 29%lung function

This is so hard for me to understand my father is 80 and suffering with copd I don’t understand when he go to the hospital not being able to get a breath after blood test and X-rays they always say his lungs are clear and his lungs are over extended they also tell him his general health for and 80 year old man are amazing!

I'm hoping the. Copd will give me a heart attack and easy death. Otherwise I'll have to find a way out.

God saves

What about morphine for the end stage where someone is going through the dying process, surely it would help, if not just to trick the brain into thinking you can actually breathe!

Had a POSITIVE test..turned out to be NEGATIVE

I Have COPD. It didn't bother me at all. And then all of a sudden (two weeks ago) it got to where I can only stand one minute at a time. At which point, I lose control of certain body parts. My head, neck and upper body. It gets so bad, that I don't even think that I can ride in a friends car!! So I end calling the local EMT's. The last time, they sent me a bill(Fire Department) 355.00 Dollars. Maybe I should go to the hospital sooner next time. And I am certain that there will be a next time. I just want to make it to 64 years old. All the great drugs that I did, who could ask for anymore??? and I am certain the fire department) fire department

Did I hear the name was Jammed Pistol? Or is it my COPD?

I have never seen a generous and helping being like Doctor Agboya who handles to me the cure to Tinnitus condition and this medicine perfectly healed me of my Tinnitus. All thanks to God for helping me find doctor Agboya on KZbin. kzbin.info/door/L_ksbGrUL6rQ14jtaTmhIQ

I've been fighting COPD now for 12 yr and in gold stage 2..it is very hard to do alot of things

Do you like to wear oxygen tank

I'm 35years of age got COPD in 2018 only got told last year and I'm suffering really bad

I'm laying next to my mom in the ICU right now. Stage 4 emphysema (COPD). -- My was told she had four years left to live.. A week later she gets sick, and was admitted to the ER. It wasn't even 24hrs before the forced onto a ventilator for a week. We have the tubes out and the ventilator.. It's really bad. Me and my sister are now sleeping with her until she passes or hopefully her chest clears up a bit, just enough to move around without being forced back onto the ventilator. My mom is very sedated and on fentynal. -- This disease has broken me.. And Canada doesn't have a few of the newer treatments out that can extend the life of someone with COPD. I've witnessed an absolute nightmare for going on 2 years. My mom is such a lovely human being, she didn't deserve such torture. Nobody does. ❤🙏🏻 Prayers for my mom and anyone else suffering from terrible illness.

I like the immediate results of a colonoscopy vs cologuard. I had a positive cologuard but have to wait 3 months before I can get a colonoscopy due to lack of doctors in the area where I live. Also I don't think my insurance is going to cover the procedure so I'm stuck with a $1,500 copay.

User beware : If you get a cologuard test and it comes back positive, you will need a colonoscopy. But here's the kicker: a colonoscopy alone will cost you nothing, but as in my case a colonscopy following a cologuard test will cost me $300. And I have good insurance. I recommend just getting the colonoscopy and skip the cologuard step.

When she said it’s not a easy way to die, that was hard for me to hear. My mama is dying of Copd. Her Fev 1 is 15 %.

The video is not about how reliable a Cologaurd kit is. Its a discussion on the process and procedure of colorectal cancer screening and testing in general. Just pointing that out for the next person who thought it was so they don't waste 20 minutes of their life waiting for that.

my mom was one of the youngest person diagnose with copd here in dutch . she is now 51 and has gold 4 .. she has the hereditary my aunt and grandpa had it to

“Ask your doctor today if Cologuard is right for you!”…ffff….you! Has nothing to do with whether or not it’s “right for you” and has everything to do with your ffff… insurance.

Can't thank Tim enough for helping me get tested quickly, prior elective major surgery, totally unaware. Guess that's why my dog would wake me the past 2 years at night!!!

Gee I learned a lot from this. NOT! Do they all read from the same script? There are many other causes besides smoking and second hand smoke. Worked a lot of jobs back in the days when nobody knew what a dust mask was.

The herbal medication I got from Madida herbal center I saw on KZbin helped me reverse my pulmonary fibrosis.

It’s interesting that none of these doctors care to mention that there’s a one and 2000 chance of a perforation (which can be fatal) with a colonoscopy. However with colorguard there is a 0% chance of that. Same with a FIT test.

thankyou for this video.
