Often with colorectal cancer there are no early warning symptoms but with early detection there is a 90 per cent chance that you can be cured of the disease. If you're over 50 years old, talk to your health care provider about obtaining a colonoscopy and making regular screening for colorectal cancer a part of your health routine.
