A qFIT test looks for traces of blood found in the stool(poo) which may not be visible to the naked eye indicating damage to the lining, or pre-cancerous changes of the bowel. Early and frequent testing could allow for curative treatment as early as possible.
If you have noticed blood in your stool, a change in bowel habit or unexplained pain in your abdomen and have a history of bowel cancer or other bowel-related diseases then a qFIT test is a good test for you.
Our qFIT test is easily performed in the comfort of your own home, with the sample then posted to our NHS-based laboratory for comprehensive testing and results returned within a few working days. In case of a positive result, one of our specialist nurses will contact you to discuss the next steps. If appropriate, we can send your test results directly to your GP for further management.
Each of our qFIT tests comes with a free Gut Health Assessment developed by a leading consultant surgeon specialising in gastrointestinal disease. Our medical experts will review your assessment alongside your test results and provide you with a report and advice on how to care for your gut now, and in the future.
