5-year survival rate of patients is 90% if #colorectalcancer is detected only locally, it is 71% if it is confined regionally, and 14% if it has metastasized to distant organs. #EarlyDetectionSavesLives #CheckYourColon hubs.ly/H0kT33S0

Alyson, 37, ignored symptoms of #colorectalcancer, like indigestion, gas, blood in stool, for 2 years but when her mom died from the same disease, she got screened and found she had #coloncancer. #GetScreened #Never2Young hubs.ly/H0kT34H0

#Colorectalcancer is the 4th most commonly diagnosed cancer among adults in the U.S and 2nd leading cause of death. About 150,000 new cases of this cancer are diagnosed each year. #FecalImmunochemicalTest #TomorrowCantWait hubs.ly/H0kT3p50

The most important thing to remember about #colorectalcancer is it's preventable and treatable if detected early. It's crucial to get screened regularly to catch it as soon as possible and seek medical care. #EarlyDetectionSavesLives hubs.ly/H0kT4X_0

The death rate from #colorectalcancer has been dropping in both men and women for several decades. Two likely reasons are that polyps are being found more often and earlier by screening and removed and #cancer treatment has improved. #Never2Young hubs.ly/H0kT4fW0

At 43, Missi was shocked to find out she had #colorectalcancer. She felt bloated and nauseated at times but she ignored symptoms. Then she saw lot of blood in stool and decided to get screened. She believes it saved her life. #Never2Young hubs.ly/H0kT34y0

Remember, the most common symptom of #colorectalcancer is NO symptom. It's called the Silent Killer. It's important not to wait for symptoms before seeing a doctor. Early detection can save your life. #TomorrowCantWait #DontAssume hubs.ly/H0kT4fN0

Provide as much information to your doctor about your daily symptoms. Use this diary to keep track of them and their severity daily. Bring it to your next appointment. #ColorectalCancer #Never2Young #DontAssume http://CCAlliance_FreeDownloads_Yoursymptomsdiary.pdf

#Cancer can start at virtually any place in the body. Cancer cells grow out of control crowding out normal cells which makes it difficult for the body to function properly where cancer started. #Colorectalcancer #DontAssume hubs.ly/H0kT4fJ0

Cancer treatments are getting better and better and more people than ever before lead full lives after diagnosis. #Colorectalcancer #TomorrowCantWait hubs.ly/H0kT33D0

Unlike some other stool-based tests, InSure ONE results are not affected by food or medications. #ColorectalCancer #TomorrowCantWait hubs.ly/H0kT4gJ0

InSure ONE is the only fecal Immunochemical Test (FIT) that does not require handling of stool samples. #ColorectalCancer #Never2Young hubs.ly/H0kT4gG0

A 2019 study, shows that millennials have about 2x the risk of getting 6 obesity-related cancers, including #colorectalcancer, compared to baby boomers at same age. #DontAssume American Cancer Society hubs.ly/H0kT4fq0

Increasing rate of obesity-related cancers in younger generations, including #colorectalcancer, threatens to stop or even reverse the progress that has been achieved in declining death rates from #cancer in the last 3 decades. American Cancer Society hubs.ly/H0kT33k0

After #colorectalcancer treatment, 30-50% of patients will see their cancer return, mostly within the first 2-3 years. In a head-to-head study, #COLVERA detected 2x recurrent cases compared to CEA. #EarlyDetectionSavesLives hubs.ly/H0kT4fz0

COLVERA detected #colorectalcancer recurrence up to 5 months earlier than CEA. Early detection may allow additional treatment options and improved patient care. Clinical Genomics  hubs.ly/H0kT33t0

Chance of #colorectalcancer recurrence within 5 years is 95%. Stay vigilant with a 5-year follow-up plan. #COLVERA hubs.ly/H0kT4Xp0

The goal of follow-up care is to detect recurrence of #colorectalcancer as early as possible, even before symptoms present. Early detection allows for better treatment options and better care. #COLVERA #EarlyDetectionSavesLives hubs.ly/H0kT33n0

Sedentary lifestyle is a risk factor for #colorectalcancer that you can control. American Cancer Society recommends that adults should get at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity activity each week. #TomorrowCantWait hubs.ly/H0kT4ft0

#COLVERA was shown to be positive 10 months prior to CT scan confirmed #colorectalcancer metastasis to the lung; however, CEA, the current gold standard remained negative throughout the course of care. hubs.ly/H0kT3mR0
