High Fit Result

[Michelle19830]

Good Morning

Just wondered if anyone else had received a very high FIT result. My daughter received hers yesterday it is is 1270 ug/g. Any advice would be really appreciated, we are currently waiting for the doctors to call with more information.

Hi Michelle19830,

Thanks for posting with us. With a result like that, you could request a second test as a comparison. It is high and it means there is blood present. However, this could be the result of many different things going on. Further tests and a possible colonoscopy could be ordered. One thing to focus on is symptoms are symptoms no matter your age. They need to be checked out. Never accept something couldn't be going on because of your daughter's age. Get it checked out. You need answers to narrow down the causes so you don't have to speculate.

Some of the things to think about is your family history. Is there a history of disease in the family? IBS? Your daughter is very young. That is a huge benefit. Catching anything early is key and exactly what you are doing. You are all over this.👍❤️

Please let us know what you find out as far as next steps. This type of information is beneficial to others on this site.

All the best in getting answers ...

My fit test came back high. Caused by a tear. Lots of other minor issues can cause high FIT results.

Good luck.
