Michael Savage's Nightmare Experience with Cologuard and American Medicine

The Cologuard Experience

• 📦 A Cologuard test is described as a non-invasive method for checking bowel cancer, involving a box with a child-sized toilet seat and a container.
• 🚽 The process requires placing the device under the toilet seat, aiming carefully to deposit stool into the container, and then scraping it into a special tube.
• 🤢 The speaker found the entire process to be the most horrible thing he has done in years, detailing the unpleasantness of handling the sample.

Mailing the Sample

• 📮 After collecting the sample, it must be placed back into the box and then taken to a UPS store for mailing.
• 😟 The speaker expresses anxiety about the UPS store employees knowing the box contains fecal matter and how it is handled.
• 🗓️ The test, which took about a month to build up the courage to complete, was mailed out on a Saturday and expected to take eight days to process.

Skepticism Towards American Medicine

• ⚠️ A significant concern is raised about the possibility of false positives from Cologuard tests.
• 💰 The speaker speculates that companies owning Cologuard might also own colonoscopy clinics, potentially creating a system where false positives drive patients to the clinics they own.
• 🔍 This suspicion leads to a resolve to research the ownership of Cologuard and any potential ties to colonoscopy businesses if the test comes back positive.
• 🗣️ The segment concludes with a quote about not being able to fool all the people all the time, reflecting a deep distrust in the medical system.
