Welcome to the forum Zlp78, although I'm sorry to hear that your FIT test was positive and you've now received an urgent referral for suspected bowel cancer.
I hope the information I've included about your referral will help to ease your mind but if it would help to talk things through with someone, our team of cancer nurses are available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m. They're very insightful and will do all they can to answer any questions you may have and support you whilst you wait.
I know how scary and worrying this must be Zlp78 but as you've seen from other posts within our community so many of our members have been through this too, so you are not alone, and hopefully some of them will be along soon to offer their support and advice.
In the meantime, I'm wishing you all the best with your appointment and I'll have my fingers crossed for a good outcome.
Kind regards,
Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator
