Over that the organisation is well placed to time the personal satisfaction I have got continue raising awareness about bowel from the contribution the Foundation has cancer.

“THIS YEAR 52 BUSINESSES AND MORE THAN 6,000 EMPLOYEES TOOK PART IN THE PROGRAM. OVER 4,764 TESTS WERE DISTRIBUTED.” 8 “My story begins a short time before turning 30. I attended Nick’s presentation and Jodi’s story hit me hard as my brother-in-law (in his 40s with three children) is in the final throes of a losing battle with bowel cancer. At the end of the presentation, our CEO announced that they had purchased everyone in the company a screening test and I decided to take one. I had recently moved in with my girlfriend so it took a few weeks before I did the test. It was far easier and less dramatic than I imagined it would be. A few weeks later I received a phone call at work from my GP’s office asking me to come and see him straight away. My heart sank and fear set in.

When I arrived home, I found a letter in the mailbox stating that my test had come “IF LEFT UNTREATED back positive for blood – more fear set in. The following day I met with the GP. WOULD HAVE LIKELY He was amused and confused why I had even taken the test but thrilled when I TURNED INTO BOWEL explained the work visit from Nick. He said although I’m young and have no symptoms, CANCER.” I had to see a specialist just to rule things out. After giving me some statistics about how unlikely it was that I had anything wrong, I left feeling a little better.

The specialist had much the same reaction and explained it was very unlikely he’d find anything, but a colonoscopy was a formality we had to take. When I awoke from the colonoscopy I was told that the specialist wanted to see me straight away. He said he was in disbelief, as he had found and removed six polyps which were sent for biopsy.

I have since been informed that of two of the polyps were ‘nasty ones’ and if left untreated would have likely turned into bowel cancer.

I can’t express my thanks to Nick and to REDARC Electronic strongly enough. Without their conscious efforts to spread the word (and the extremely fortuitous luck I’ve had), I’d likely be in the same boat as my brother- in-law in a few years’ time. Early detection through a simple screening test has more than likely saved my life. Thank you.”

The roadshow travelled to Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne and Adelaide. The EXPERIENCE initiative was created to get Australians to act on their ‘gut feelings’ and see their GP. UNCOMFORTABLE A staggering 65% of us will experience GUT SYMPTOMS, YET uncomfortable gut symptoms – such as bloating, cramping, gas or unexplained MANY OF US WILL tiredness – in any three-month period, yet many of us will not do anything about it. NOT DO ANYTHING A few of us will explain it away as being ABOUT IT.” diet related or due to stress. Some will Google ‘irritable bowel syndrome’ or put it down to ‘not being as young or as fit as we used to be’. Even fewer of us will ask our GP about our symptoms. But in many cases that ‘gut feeling’ you may have that something is not right, is worth trusting.

We brought together some of Australia’s leading health and wellbeing experts, to raise awareness about unhealthy bowel symptoms, when to act on them, and the steps you can take to lead a healthier life.

Our expert panel included Channel 7 Sunrise GP Ginni Mansberg, dietitian Themis Chryssidis and leading nutritionist Sally Joseph who discussed the gut related issues at a series of live roadshow events.

Articles and advice from our panel as well as leading colorectal surgeon Andrew Luck and Terry White Pharmacies is available at our dedicated website: gutfeelings.org.au.

Also launched as part of the Trust Your Gut initiative was our downloadable symptom checker based on research undertaken by Curtin University. This tool can be completed at home and taken to your GP for follow up.

Acting quickly when you first notice symptoms is key because over 90% of bowel cancer cases can be successfully treated if diagnosed before the cancer spreads.

You know your body better than anyone. If you think something’s not right Jodi Lee Foundation urges you to trust your gut and speak to your GP.
