concerned

Hello.  I have had a FIT test and blood test, all showing abnormality, including with liver dysfunction and kidneys.  My FIT was 170 and now I am waiting to see a specialist for possible lower GI cancer.  I would like to know if there is any possibility I won't have cancer.  I also have bleeding and severe pain, along with lethargy etc.

  • Hello sunflowercrew1 and thanks for the post

    I am sorry to hear you are undergoing some tests at the moment and this sounds a very worrying time for you.

    Unfortunately until more tests are carried out no one can really say what the matter is. The results so far are showing that something is going on that could be serious but there are other inflammatory bowel conditions that can also cause debilitating symptoms.

    I hope you know more very soon. Till then try and sit tight and keep your mind on other things as best you can.

    Please get back to us if you need any more information or support.  You may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline.  The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.

    Best wishes,

    Naomi
