Fecal Immunochemical Test (FIT) for Colon Cancer Screening | UCLA Digestive Diseases

It would be nice if we had something this easy for pancreatic cancer

[@silvialogan9226]

That includes screening for ovarian cancer too.

Don't wait on them for a test/screening. Tell the doctor you have a pain in your upper stomach area and mention your pancreas. They should send you to have an ultrasound of your pancreas. Don't quit till you GET it! Stay on it. Be consumed, even if you must pay for it. Sometimes when it's all said and done, some of the procedures don't cost as much as we think. And it's worth it! You'll have peace of mind or a taste of reality!!

What if your stool is so enormous it makes the paper sink instantly? What if I have a "hanger" still attach to my anus? Can I wipe before collecting a sample? What if my aim in attaching the cap with wand is off and fecal matter gets on the side of the edge? Oh well... I'm gonna need a few back up kits, then.
