Hi does anyone know what a QFit test means if it came back as raised? Id been passing a lot of blood. Seen GP. Bloods all ok. But QFIT came as raised. Iv been referred as urgent colonoscopy due to family history of bowel cancer. My mum died from bowel cancer. So not sure if inshould be worried.

 

I am keeping the positive thoughts its most likely nothing. 

 

Thanks

    As far as I am aware it just means that blood was found in your stool and an urgent referral..2 week pathway is now standard procedure with this result.

    I also went to the doctor due to passing blood and got a positive FIT test. I have also been referred on the 2 week path way.
