Hi all 

First time posting here, been reading some of your stories and looking for some reassurance /support from all you lovely people

did fit test and came back as abnormal which was not expecting, shocked to say the least ! 

had screening appointment booked for week later in which nurse said blood had been found in sample, couldn’t say how much blood when I asked as said they were not told that information? I now have a colonoscopy booked for 5th aug as nurse mentioned they wanted it done within 2 weeks, so in space of two weeks I’ve had result, screening and now will be having colonoscopy.

I am trying to stay positive as I know many different things can cause issues other than the big scary one but as I have had some issues with extreme constipation then on off loose poo, pain, bloating , sometimes feel like needing a poo and don’t go, and very windy (sorry if tmi )  and unfortunately looked at dr Google …I know, I shouldn’t have but …. I’ve now scared myself silly !! 

I do have other health issues for which I am taking medication  I’ve also been having regular blood tests and some issues have been popping up , high red blood cell count ,low platelets, platelet clumping and high hemaglobin which is being monitored.

all in all a right pickle …sorry for length of post but just needed to share my concerns and didn’t want to stress my daughter as I always try to keep strong for her 

thank you for reading and I wish you all good luck In whatever battles you are facing X
