Positive fit test, high reading!

I’ve been scurrying and worrying for many many months now, without a hope of an answer as I’m pregnant and I cannot be investigated. I also have health anxiety which does not help things at all as I have given myself a death sentence. I have had three fit test done. First one was 200ug second one was normal and the third one was over 200ug. I’m beside myself has anyone had high readings like this and it was nothing serious? 

  • Hello Sabr, 

    It must be a really stressful time for you especially as you are pregnant and worry that you cannot be investigated at the moment. I think the best thing to do is talk to your doctor about these FIT results and what they might mean and whether these results mean anything specific or if they are nothing to be concerned about at this stage. Don't be shy to tell your doctor that this is causing your health anxiety to resurface and whether there is anything they can advise to help. 

    I hope you get some answers soon and that you will hear from others here who have been in a similar position before. 

    Best wishes,
