Hi
I'm a 75 year non-smoking old male. I take regular exercise and am sensible about my diet.
In February (4 months ago) I started leaking mucus from my anus. The doctor ran through all the normal tests for the condition and they all were negative. I am not losing weight and have no pain or other symptoms. He finally asked me to supply a stool sample for a FIT test. The result is a FIT rating of 8.5 and a recommendation for a colonoscopy.
The doctor didn't seem to know what a rating of 8.5 meant (or he wasn't saying).
Anybody know if this is high or low?
