Hello everyone - I am in a bit of a sad and uncertain place. 

I went to my GP a couple of weeks ago as I have had lower abdominal pain for more a couple of months. I have a familial history of cancer (lost sister and aunties to stomach, colorectal and breast). Doctor booked me in for bloods and a FIT. The bloods came back fine (which is a relief) but the FIT was positive. 

The pain comes and goes. If I am lying down and get up, when I engage my core to get up the pain comes e.g. when I probably apply a pinching force to my intestinal area. The pain is on the right side in line with the where I would think my cesum is.  

With my family history, I last had a colonoscopy in 2019 which was clear and there were no polyps. However, due to the positive FIT I have been referred on the 2 week pathway and am waiting to get an appointment.

Other than the pain and the positive FIT, I do not have any other symptoms, I am very fit (I am training for a marathon and for example ran 75km last week), I have no fatigue, I eat like a horse, I do not drink, I do not smoke, I have gained weight (2lb) since the start of the year, I have regular movents, I do no have any bloating or night sweats or anything. However, I am very worried about what they might find and the waiting is very hard to deal with.
