- "I won the lottery when that box fell through the door because without it, doesn't bear thinking about, so very, very lucky to have done that test, so please do yours."
Steve received a faecal immunochemical test (FIT) in the post on his 58th birthday. He was diagnosed stage 3 bowel cancer in November 2022. This is his story.
Every 15 minutes someone is diagnosed with bowel cancer in the UK. That’s nearly 43,000 people every year, nearly 120 people every day. We're working towards a future where nobody dies from the disease.

Thank you for sharing with us.
Being on the first rung of the ladder can be so daunting with the names of things, not understanding what is going to happen, fears and so forth.
It took a lot of unselfish courage for you to share your own journey.
God bless you and keep well.
Wishing you a long, healthy and happy life now.

hi there exactly the same with my husband with his fit test through the door. his only symptom was fatigue. stage 3 bowel cancer ...
🤞
I find myself scanning CZcams videos now looking for answers. I stumbled across yours. I had my colonoscopy yesterday after my positive fit test of 400.
It was a fast track through the Gp as I have quite severe anaemia, but no bleeding that is noticeable.
I’m a bit sore in places after the colonoscopy as they took quite a few polyps for biopsy . I’m in limbo stage now, not quite knowing whether I’ve been lucky or not.
I have seen your video I feel slightly more confident in the success rate of treating bowel cancer, so I can go forward with a slightly more positive outlook . Thank you
