Every medical provider I've ever visited has been pounding my metaphorical ass since 4 years ago (like it literally started at midnight on my exact 50th birthday) to remind me that my colonoscopy is due to go spelunking for polyps and "prevent cancer" for some reason.
Guys, I have enough real problems to worry about, without anyone inventing new ones or going on a fishing expedition. I get really sick of these "mandatory screenings".
How much of this is due to better survival from other causes of mortality?
