got a question for anyone on Neanderthin who has taken a colon cancer test:
my doctor gave me a test to take home to test for occult blood in the stool.
for the test to be accurate, one has to 'avoid red meat and raw fruits and
vegetables' for 2-3 days before taking this test, or you can get a false
positive readng. since red meat and raw fruit/vegetables is my basic diet,
what can i do? do i have to subsist on walnuts and chicken/turkey for a few
days?
thanks, joAnn.
