I'm sorry to hear about the symptoms you've been contending with and for the worry they, and the results of your FIT test, are causing.

I hope your appointment with the GP yesterday went well, but if you'd like to discuss your situation further with one of our cancer nurses, they're available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m. They're very easy to talk to and will do all they can to answer your questions and put your mind at ease about what may happen next. 

Many of our members have been in a similar situation to yourself Joannarie, so you are not alone, and hopefully you will get to hear about their experiences and receive some support and advice from them soon.

We're thinking of you Joannarie and will have our fingers crossed everything will be o.k.

Kind regards,

Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator
