NHS Health A-Z

Your complete guide to conditions, symptoms and treatments, including what to do and when to get help. Do You Look After Someone? Census data shows there are over 6.5 million people in the UK providing unpaid support to a family member, friend or neighbour who would otherwise not be able to manage. It is estimated that just over one in ten patients on any GP Practice List is a Carer, although many go unrecognised. Carers are extremely valuable to the people they take care of. They enable their cared for to maintain their independence and quality of life.

Supporting Carers We are committed to addressing the specific needs of carers, offering help and support wherever appropriate and practicable. For more information please go to the Practice Information on our home screen.

The Faecal Occult Blood Test (FOB) - Please Click Here.

A small sample of stool (faeces) is smeared on to a piece of card. You obtain a sample by using a small scraper to scrape some stool off toilet tissue which you have just used after going to the toilet. A chemical is added to the sample on the card. If there is a change in colour after adding the chemical, it indicates that some blood is present. If required, there are test kits that you can get at pharmacies, which enable you to do the test at home. Some people are issued with test kits to do testing at home. Usually, two or three FOB tests are done on two or three separate stool samples, obtained on different days. This is because a bleeding disorder of the gut (intestine) may only bleed now and then. So, not every sample may contain blood. A series of two or three samples done on several days may be more accurate in detecting a bleeding gut disorder. There are some foods and medications which may affect the results of FOB tests, making it appear there was blood present when there wasn't. However, this is quite unusual and generally no dietary advice is now given when doing an FOB test. Faecal Occult Blood Tests, detect Bowel Cancer early which otherwise is often detected too late.
