Hi wbiC. My gp says she wanted to rule out other causes before diagnosing ibs thats why she says to have bloods stool and screening done, I automatically thought ibs after being diagnosed with fibro got a bit of a shock when screening came back positive that was never a thing that crossed my mind to be honest. Thankyou I'll check those links out. Take care.
I read somewhere that there is about 10-15% chances of cancer with positive FIT test. Don’t remember the numbers exactly but there were not high.
So eventually did u try to find out more on your fit test even after the colonoscopy was okay?
Hi Mondlee I have an appointment to get the colonoscopydone on the 29th of this month so unfortunately I know nothing untill then although the nurse on the phone did say there was only a mild trace of blood so I guess that's a positive start.
That’s good, update us on ur colonoscopy because I had my colonoscopy in March and a few other scans, all good but then the output and feeling are not always good till now. Like sometimes I have the urgency to BM and after BM, my anus always feel sensitive, like feeling unfinished, I don’t know, it’s frustrating
It's an awful feeling I totally get what you mean. I got the dreded prep drink this morning I'm not looking forward to this at all I feel anxious and embarrassed just thinking about it. I'm pleased yours was all good sorry you still feel frustrated I think it's such a delicate part of our body and when its not working as well as it should it's very confusing and worrying. I will certainly keep everyone posted on my results. Merry Christmas and all the best for 2021.
My dad had a positive FIT test last year so he was sent for a colonoscopy and the GI found nothing. Sounds like it’s not super uncommon.
Hi Denmag I'm pleased your dad's cane back clear can i ask did he have any symptoms.
No I don’t think so. He’s always had clear scopes so they sent him the kit more or less to see if he should have one. It was either a false positive or some other fluke. But clearly it does happen
Hi, how did the colonoscopy go?
