Hi all.
New to this forum. I'd like some advice if possible. So a bit of context, I'm 30 years old and in the past couple of months I've noticed I've been having loose stools. There is no visible blood. And no other symptoms.
I want to be proactive as I know bowel cancer is not as uncommon as I initially thought in young people. I decided to buy an at home bowel FIT test from the brand SelfCheck. It is sold in major pharmacies such as Lloyd's and Superdrug.
I've done 2 of these tests, both negative.
I'd mainly like to know if this test is a reputable and reliable test? It also says its sensitivity is 30µg (I'm not medical - so is this good?)
I am of course much too young to be on the NHS FIT screening, which is why I am investing in alternative tests.
Any info on at home FIT tests would be amazing.
Thanks.
