A member asked:

Had trace occult blood in recent fobt test. should i worry and see a gi specialist?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

FOBT ?'s: Any positive test for blood in an FOBT test should be evaluated by a GI specialist. Early detection/removal of pre-malignant sites of bleeding can decrease the rate of malignant conversion. Ask your primary care physician for a GI referral.
