High fit test and low iron

So I have been suffering with what I was told was IBS and this has been for quite awhile I spoke to a different doctor and she decided to run some blood tests my results came back and showed good iron stores but low iron in my blood she said this must be due to heavy periods when I explained due to the contraceptive pill I'm on I don't have periods at all and as my bowel movements have changed she asked me to do a fit test my results have come back at 183, I have a Covid test tomorrow and a colonoscopy booked for Friday I have two young children and I'm very scared I have not had any weight loss but due to the fact that I'm constantly tired I'm living on a sugar but I don't really have an appetite for anything else

  • Hello! Hope your doing well :)

    I am going through similar at the moment and have positive qfit test of 220 and now today was told my iron levels are low.


    How did your colonoscopy go? 
    I'm due to have colon capsule endoscopy next week. 

  • I am also anaemic and today was told that my FIT result was raised. The GP receptionist couldn't give me any more insight so now I am feeling anxious. I have had many colonoscopies and endoscopies over the years and have had polyps removed and my mother died ofccolorectal can we when she was 47. I am 52. Trying not to worry too much...
