I was diagnosed with Bowel cancer, back in 2019. I had the Op. the Chemo, etc. I still gets posts from NHS, but have decided that I don't want to undergo these Poo samples, I am happy with being followed up, every 6 mths with my Colorectoral team.
Hi Marianne26 I received my first test while undergoing treatment so my consultant told me that I could ignore it. As I have now been discharged by my colorectal team I will do any subsequent ones
Hope you’re keeping well?
Take care
