FIT Test for Bowel Cancer

Hi

Can anyone tell me if a FIT test score of 400 definatelty means you have bowel cancer?

  • Pretty sure it doesn't. In fact, I am pretty sure the odds are still that you don't. A FIT test only says how much blood is in your poo. It says nothing about what could be causing it. I don't think there is any amount of blood that can only be caused by cancer.
