Positive FIT

So my story begins with having changes to my bowel habits which had been ongoing for months. 
Blood test back at the high end of normal except thyroid (been under active and successfully treated for years….. is it related?).

CT contrast bowel and pelvis three weeks ago and not heard anything.  Symptoms still present.  
What happens next? Who do I speak to?  Why does it all take so long? 
Feeling very sorry for myself

  • Welcome to our online community Cariad although I'm sorry you still haven't heard anything since having your CT contrast 3 weeks ago.

    If you have a contact number for the department that carried out your scan you could try getting in touch with them to get an update on your situation or you could ask your GP to chase this up for you instead.

    Hopefully some of our members who have been in a similar situation will share their thoughts and advice with you soon but if you'd like to have a quick chat about this with one of our nurses, you can do so on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m. They're very easy to talk and will do all they can to help you at this time.

    We're thinking of you Cariad and hope you won't have to wait too much longer for some news.

    Kind regards,

    Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator
