Bowel screening

I am sorry if I am being paranoid as I know there are people on here who are a lot worse than me.

I posted my bowel screening off last week (Monday) and as I didn't have a response I rang today (Tuesday).  The Helpline said that my letter had gone out last week and I should have received it and they are going to send it out first class tonight.  Now I am really worrying about it.  I had a recall from breast screening this time last year so now really worry about any hospital tests etc. 

I wonder if anyone else had been in the same situation as me.  Thank you so much for listening.

  • Hi Dana,

    It's of course natural to feel worried in these situations when there is this uncertainty and waiting for information. Hopefully by now you've received more information or at least don't have too much longer to wait.

    Do let us know how you get on, if you would like to of course. There will be many others here who have been through something similar, so whatever happens you can always use this forum for support.

    Wishing you all the best,

    Hello Ben

    Thank you for your reply. Yes thank you  I received my letter yesterday saying I needed no further tests at this time. I get email notifications so if anyone has any queries I would be very happy to help.

    Thank you
