Brief Answer: Please provide your clinical symptoms... Detailed Answer: Hi, I should have your clinical symptoms first for better judgment. Next, if all the tests you did resulted negative, there is no reason you should have the colonoscopy. Unless, you are having problems and have high risk for colon cancer (family history). Looking forward to have the requested data for further assistance. Dr.Klerida
