Hi Rainey75 I’ve seen readings lower than that that have turned out to be bowel cancer and also levels higher than that that have not been cancer - see below

FIT of 400 – NO cancer detected via colonoscopy!

The main thing is to get checked out. Only 1 in 10 colonoscopies results in a bowel cancer diagnosis as there are other things that can cause blood in the stool like polyps, diverticulitis colitis et .

Its good to hear that you’ve got a date for your colonoscopy already and please let us know how you get on?

Take care
