Positive Fit test-3 years old

My son is undergoing investigations because of anemia, 3 weeks ago his iron and ferritin levels were ok and now they have suddenly dropped to being low.

I handed in a fit test, this had 2 samples in, one came back as what my doctor has said is a 'strong positive' and one is negative? 

I now have to wait until at least Monday to talk to his hospital consultant.

Surely they can not do a colonoscopy on a 3 year old? 

  • Hi Mum13250,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat. I'm sorry you haven't received a reply up until now - I hope you're getting on OK. I can understand this must be unsettling and also a little confusing with the mixed results. Hopefully you can get through to someone today to try to find out any next steps that may be needed, and then hopefully you can get the answers you need soon.

    Wishing you all the best,
