I am no expert, but your FIT test is very barely positive. 10 is the cut-off and you will see people here with scores of over 400. As 9 comes close to ruling out bowel cancer, I would guess bowel cancer would still be pretty unlikely at 10.

Hope you get an answer soon and it turns out to be something really minor.

[@MargaretMary]‍ Thank you for your reply.

At first when i saw my results of 10 i wasnt overly worried then the GP scared me saying 10 is still positive and a 2ww is needed to rule out cancer i lost my mum who was in her 30s to lung cancer and her mum was 32 when she died of bowel cancer 

im just so so worried and cant take my mind of it now ive been told the calprotectin level is 99. something i dont undertand any of it 

Hi it must be hard for you to get these test results, especially with what your mum and grandma went through.

Like MargaretMary said, your FIT test is the lowest positive. It is great that you're on the 2ww so they can rule out cancer (which is important considering your family history) and you should find out what is causing your symptoms very soon. Hopefully it will be something less serious. So many things can cause blood in poo.

As your faecal calprotectin test is between 50-250ug/g, it is an indeterminate result for GI inflammation. If it was over 250ug/g, it would be an indicative result of active GI inflammation.

They should ask you to send another faecal sample in 4-6 weeks. If it's still over 50ug/g, they may refer you to a gastroenterologist. If they don't get back to you, you may want to call and ask them about this.

I hope everything turns out okay. If this is at all reassuring, I had a FIT test of >400 and I turned out to have haemorrhoids. 

Hi Thank you for your replyb what do you mean when you say As your faecal calprotectin test is between 50-250ug/g, it is an indeterminate result for GI

Hi no worries.

An indeterminate result for gastro instestinal inflammation means that there may be inflammation in your digestive system but there may not. The result is slightly positive.

That is why they should get you to do a repeat test to decide if they should refer you to a gastroenterologist, as your result is not that high thankfully. 

If there is inflammation, it could be caused by a condition like Crohns disease or Colitis.
