Hi, I hope you're okay. Receiving a test result that's not in the normal range can be worrying.

The normal range for a fit test is 0-10ug so yours is slightly higher meaning that there is some blood found in your poo. Did your GP talk to you about this?

Blood in poo can be caused by many things such as haemorrhoids, anal fissures, crohn's disease etc so doesn't always mean cancer but it's good that you got your symptoms checked and did the FIT test.

My test came back at >400ug and I had a sigmoidoscopy and it turned out I have internal haemorrhoids. I hope you also find out you don't have something sinister.
