Another factor is simply the sensitive nature of this exam itself. While it could be a little awkward to think about, especially if you come from a culture in which digestive issues are a sensitive subject, this is what medical staff does every day with complete professionalism and without any judgment at all. To them, it’s just another day looking after patients’ well-being.
Of course, there is also the psychological aspect to it. Truth is that the idea of any medical test our doctor orders makes us feel a little vulnerable, which can easily trigger stress.
What one should have in mind, however, is that avoiding the test doesn’t remove the risk,it just delays the answers. Facing that brief moment is worth because it can finally give you a peace of mind.
