I've had piles in the past with some minor bleeds which coupled with heavy periods at the time led to me developing iron deficiency anaemia (2017) - got checked out by GP and had continuing cold sores on my face until the iron tablets kicked in. Didn't have a cold sore again until earlier this year and blood tests showed folate and iron deficiency- I'm still on iron tablets now. GP only doing telephone appointments but I've not had any obvious bleeding when using the loo, not lost weight and am extremely prone to constipation- GP suggested FIT test and then I got a letter telling me to call surgery to make another telephone appointment- the receptionist said FIT test score was 146 but blood tests are normal - can't get another appointment for four weeks and tbh don't know what score means and think blood will be normal as I'm still taking iron. I've googled FIT test 146 and found a post on here about people being called next day by their doctor for colonoscopy! Should I be concerned?
