Good morning,, I've just had a telephone consultation, I was told my fit test came back at 200. is this a bad sign ? I have to have a colonoscopy in the next 2 weeks, any advice ? x
Husband had his FIat results today. Had blood in his stools almost 3 weeks ago which he got checked ASAP with his GP. Ordered him a FIT test. Had the results via face to face with GP earlier today. Strongly positive ( I'm assuming this means lots of blood) number was 90 and has been referred for 2 week appointment with colorectal department at hospital. So upset and worried. I don't want him to have cancer.
Hi Lunarlou, it’s so easy to think the worse in these situations, I know cause I did too. However, try not to worry as he’s been fast tracked and will be getting answers within 2 weeks. My fit test was positive and was 400 which is mega high, however I had my colonoscopy today and no mass or evidence of malignancy was found! ️ there are so many things that can cause the bleeding so keep positive! Good luck to you both for good news x
Hi Lisa so nice to hear your had the all clear despite having a high fit reading. Mine came back as 176 so quite worried. Can I ask did they tell you what was causing your symptoms and fit score in the end please?
Hi, sorry for jumping on an old thread. just had a positive fit of 207, 28 year old female with two young kids. Absolutely terrified. I’ve got colonoscopy next Thursday but I’m a wreck. Can I ask how everybody got on in the last few months?
Hi I know how you feel - I had a high FIT test beginning of this year - had two more FIT tests after that and the number was going up each time. I was petrified thinking the worse - I had a colonoscopy and it turned out I had severe diverticulosis and haemmoroids - so please try not to worry - more often than not it turns out to be nothing to worry about at all. I’m sure you will be fine xx
I had the same greater than 200. Had CT colonoscopy and sigmoidoscopy which failed. No cancer found, severe diverticulosis. No further investigations at this time. Discharged from 2 week referral back to Doctor.
