Hi. I’m in a similar position. I have had a positive fit test and have been referred for a urgent colonoscopy as the result is extremely high but with the coronavirus I have been told I could be waiting 12 weeks or more.  There is nothing we seem to be able to do. Even private hospitals are shutting down. 

Its horrendous. I can’t relax. I work at the hospital myself and now I have to go to work next week and I’m aware that if I get coronavirus and then offered a colonoscopy I wouldn’t be able to go for the colonoscopy. My GP has said with all the stress (I have a headache 24/7 since my result) pain in my tummy and dihoreah but that’s been going on 2.5 years, that I can be signed on the sick but I feel that I will get called out for not going to work, and teased. No one knows about my test result and until I have a definitive result from a colonoscopy and know what I’m dealing with, that’s how I want it to remain. I don’t know what to do. My partner says I should stay at home and let the doctor sign me off on stress. My head is just constantly banging. 

I have had lumps in my breast previously and they have been nothing serious but I know how you feel. You just don’t know what you are dealing with. 

Please let me know how you get on.x

Thanks for the supportive reply. I just have no idea when I will get checked and the thought of going to a hospital at this time is also pretty scary too, so I think I’ll have to cross my fingers and hope for the best. Stress is such a horrible thing so I hope you can get answers soon. We all owe those of you working in hospitals so much. Take care keep safe.
