Using a FOB Test screening kit to detect the early stages of bowel cancer could save your life.
An immunochemical FOB Test looks for what is known as Faecal Occult Blood (FOB), or in other words: invisible traces of blood in your bowel movements. It’s one of the most accurate screening methods, and one of the easiest to use. You dip the special brush in the loo, dab it on the card provided, drop it in the post, and you’re done. No faecal handling, and no need to change your diet or medications.
If you are over 50 we encourage you to have a FOB Test and screen yourself annually. Bowel cancer does not discriminate, but together, we have a greater chance of beating it.
A FOB Test (such as the BowelScreen Australia® test available from this website) costs $39.95, which includes the kit, pathology analysis result reporting to you and your GP, as well as postage and handling.
Let’s Beat Bowel Cancer and Cabrini Health receive no financial incentive from this program.
