Hi ,
just wondering if anyone can help calm my horrendous anxiety a little.
so I’m 6 months postpartum and when my baby was 13 weeks I had appendicitis and had them removed. Lately I’ve been having looser stools on and off … blood tests show ferritin is slightly low but haemoglobin is normal. Did a FIT test and result came back positive but only at 16? Other stool sample for calprotectin was negative. Been referred for colonoscopy in ten days time. I am just so worried and upset, especially with my stool sample for IBD been negative.
I have had some itching too and doctor is going to check for possible haemorrhoids tomororow.. so much conflicting evidence if these can actually cause a positive FIT or not though ?.
any advice would be appreciated x
