Certain Bowel Health Home Testing Kit 18g

Used the test as I was worried about my health. It was an easy to use kit with step by step instructions. One thing I got confused with was the sampling stick mentioned on the instructions, but after looking on my kit contents I realised that this stick was in the bottle of liquid.Very good value for money.

Having just read a couple of ridiculous unhelpful reviews on here, felt compelled to add something! Firstly, a positive result in any stool test, internet bought or otherwise, does not mean that you have cancer. And secondly, a positive test on one occasion, with a negative result on another, does not reflect on the test itself. Any positive result, is always worth following up with your GP. We have a strong family history of bowel cancer, and my mother had a negative test result with her GP. It was a frank bleed two months later that eventually led to her diagnosis at 50.If this test is used correctly, it is perfectly reliable. Yes it is fiddly, and I have lost a couple through misuse, but that is the nature of the test. It is a great screening tool for anyone who is rationally able to interpret and act accordingly on the result.

Go to the Doctors, If you come across this product just through accident I would use it and then think no more about it, if you get a negative result,.If you were searching for it, whatever the result I would still go to the doctors, it is not worth the risk of waiting longer, if you still got a negative result you should feel more relaxed about it.The actual test was easy, and straightforward instructions, no complaints here.

I have had problems regarding my bowels since I was 4 but recently I have been getting a lot of visible blood whenever I go to the toilet so I decided to get this test to just make sure but my doctor done a test before I got to do this one and the doctor said there was blood, I also seen blood (a lot) yet this came up negative. So, I really wouldn't recommend buying this, just go to your doctor first as if there was a problem there's a chance that this wouldn't even detect it so you might think everything is okay and not go to the doctor.

I was very pleased with how quick the results are, plus in the privacy of my own home.The only thing that was a bit confusing was about the mentioned test stick. I worked it out in the end though.

Really unclear how to use this product. No idea if it works or not as instructions are rubbish!

This product works well provided the instructions are carefully followed. However the instructions could be better, they are written in small text in a rather disjointed manner, The cassette is also smaller than in some other makes of this test The basis of this immunological test is superior to the older test based on guaiac. No dietary modifications need to be made when using this test, although high doses of some non steroidal anti inflammatory drugs might lead to false positives, although most of the time they do not provide a problem when lower bowel bleeding such as a polyp is suspected. Worth using if worried, but don't forget a positive result does not mean you have cancer,
