Wow. I’m 58 and had my first Colon thing about 5 years ago. They are recommended once one hits the 50s. Trey is what, 26? Why did he even think about a colonoscopy so young?

I was tested at 45 if you have other issues they test earlier. I am due for another but have been putting it off.

Very sad to hear about Mancinis issues.  Great guy and good teammate. Hope he recovers.

It's every five years after you hit 50.  You're due.

He may have a family history of colon cancer, in which case they start much younger.    My wife has been tested for years because of that.
