I received my kit this week but haven't yet started to collect my samples.
As it's awkward, pooing onto your hand, would it still be a true sample if you were to take a smear from the toilet paper instead?

I never think about it once posted. I only worry about things that have happened and not what might happen!

Waste of time Tilly. It's always the things you are not expecting that go wrong.

I suppose so, grassy. The thing is , if you expect things to go wrong and they don't , then it's a pleasant surprise.

Ive done the poo test once but that was two years ago. Do they check every so often? Bit worried because my Brother was diagnosed with bowel cancer after doing that poo test four years ago, and my next youngest sister has also had bowel cancer. I'm a real wuss, only me and my youngest sister seem to have been ok up to now.
