I did test on Nov 25th and it was negative. I had horrendous GI issue and went on antibiotics. Did during that and it was negative. I was happy it came out negative. Had some terrible virus.
Very informative video- without it I would have totally messed up with my sample collection packet given to me by an ER doc. Seriously! Before watching your presentation I planned on eating beef liver tonight and red meat in upcoming days. Plus increasing bit c intake… all to improve my red blood count and B12 uptake. Thank you, new subscriber here😅
It was suggested that those aged 50 to 75 should take FoBT tests periodically. Does this imply that there is no need (or useless!) to take these tests?
I told my doctor all that comes out is blood for months now... Right now I'm freezing cold, dripping sweat. But I'm colorblind so I can't tell what color my stool is. Red and brown are almost 100% the same color to my brain. "Oversaturated brown" is probably what others would describe the color as. Green is also the same color. Fun fact. My doctor gave me this little thing and not this whole package you have. She didn't give me anything to drop onto the "A" and "B" collection sites. Just told me to return it within 24 hours of the sample collection because oxygenation, etc. That's annoying... I'm probably going to figure out what the solution is that causes the chemical reaction and hopefully create it myself if possible... 75% peroxide and 25% equal parts ethanol mixture... I have that. Man. I wouldn't wish this on anyone. Eat a perfect diet every day. Don't eat too much candy or gluten or whatever. Balance in all aspects of life is so important, yet I was never taught. Exercise. Meditate. Read. Stay hydrated. But this pain is sooooo intense and every picture I've shown to others has been "Yeah that's blood. See a doctor. Then the doctor tells me I'm fine when I wake up from whatever they just performed on my guts. I've had every single test done on me. Nothing. Super close to going to that facility in Washington D.C. because nobody can figure me out and I feel like I'm actually dying. I mean. I'm literally having blood-diarrhea multiple times every single day lol. Be careful with diet. I could have easily prevented this if I didn't drink 26 beers every single day for 10 years straight. Addiction. It's a curse and a disease. It's not usually poor impulse control... usually. It's escapism from trauma. Best of luck to anyone who read this ha.

I've been having stomach issues for this whole year and my Doctor thinks I may have H-Pylori but I for sure have hemorrhoids and bleed EVERY time I poop and my Doctor knows this BUT she still mailed out the occult blood test kit for me to complete so I'm wondering will the results be accurate?🤔
Great question. The bleeding from hemorrhoids will be on the surface of the stool - whereas occult blood will be in the stool and will not be fresh blood. How much it will impact your test - I would ask the lab
Only thing that might work for you without poisoning yourself with Bullshit prescriptions and insane, usurious price’s from pharmaceutical cartels’ is stop eating meat slowly wean yourself off if you’re a sissy, I’m kidding, but I’ve never had any problems like I read here - geez, you guys are, at the moment of writing, in bad shape. I’m only giving it away. If you don’t, as your body gets older, like a car, those conditions keep popping up… Good luck
Thing’s to consider: I’m stressed all the got damn time… Relationship stress Holding onto and dwelling on pandemics, war, loyalties. Check those things out before judging yourself as having something that maybe by changing a few things you can beat yourself. The stomach is an important and sensitive part of body H-Pylori is bacterial. Whatever it is, everyone is coming out of a pandemic and stepping into a new situation. Oh, one more thing. You sound and appear in your photo to be a worry wart? Don’t do it to yourself T

Hello, I will soon have to pick up a kit from my doctor about my unexplained weight loss. I'm a little nervous. I also take Metamucil do I need to stop taking it before the test?
Close the cover of the Hemoccult slide and put it back into its paper envelope. Don’t put it in anything waterproof, such as a plastic bag. Store it at room temperature, away from light, children, and pets (ref: www.mskcc.org/cancer-care/patient-education/fecal-occult-blood-test)
@@NurseMinder But the instructions say the following "For three days before and during stool collection period avoid Vitamin C IN EXCESS [emphasis mine] of 250mg a day from supplements, and citrus fruits and juices". This is not quite what you are saying so I'm confused?

never thought i would watch a video like this.. never thought i would have to
#truth
Yep, mines is coming next week.
Before watching this video, I didn't know how to collect my sample. I really appreciate your help 🙂 thank you very much
Happy to help. It can all feel a bit overwhelming. Explanations given in clinic make sense - until we get home and have questions
This Channel is so helpful I mean everything that you talk about is very relevant! Thank you so much!
Thanks! I want to give relevant and timely information to all nurses and healthcare professionals
great video. clear and informative instructions.
Thank you for sharing
This is very helpful information. Thank you!
You’re welcome
Great demonstration
Thanks
Thanks! This is my assignment for the next few days and I wanted to be sure to get it (as close to) right (as possible)!!
thankyou!!! i get mixed up with instructions…and i was very confused but you cleared it up, thankyou
awesome
I did test on Nov 25th and it was negative. I had horrendous GI issue and went on antibiotics. Did during that and it was negative. I was happy it came out negative. Had some terrible virus.
Good to have the information
Thanks for the help much needed it - never thought i would be searching this 😂
You are welcome

Hii. I drink some smoothie with strawberry and banana. Is it okay. Because I started collecting sample now and I drink smoothie today.
Thank you
You are welcome
Thank you much! Kidding aside it is very important test
We don’t often talk about it do we! Thanks for writing
Should the samole be stored at room temperatura? OR does ot need to be refrigerated?
Room temp as I recall. Check with the instructions provided with your kit
It was suggested that those aged 50 to 75 should take FoBT tests periodically. Does this imply that there is no need (or useless!) to take these tests?
The periodic testing is to help catch illnesses while they are still hidden- no symptoms. Worth the time in my mind
Should I conserve it in the fridge or not. Thanks.
No fridge needed
How long is the specimen good for?
If I get constipated and there’s a bit of blood from abrasions, will this possibly provide a false positive? Is that what they’re testing for?
Any blood in the stool sample will show up as a positive test. If this is a chronic issue, talk to your healthcare provider
I have done this at my job
Me too
"Ma'am, this is a Wendy's..."

@@NurseMinder
Are you into the occult, Nurse Minder. I bet, big bucks that you have some tale’s to tell…
T
Potential silly question. Can you collect a stool sample by wiping, then taking a sample off the toilet paper? Great video btw.
not the recommended route
I had cherry tomatoes the night before I took test. Would tomatoes effect the results
There are foods to avoid but I have not heard of tomatoes.
I had chicken and beef before mine
Hello, I will soon have to pick up a kit from my doctor about my unexplained weight loss. I'm a little nervous. I also take Metamucil do I need to stop taking it before the test?
That is a great question for your doctor. Sorry to hear about the unexpected weight loss - I hope you find some answers soon so you can create a plan
Where to safe the kit from day by day?
Close the cover of the Hemoccult slide and put it back into its paper envelope. Don’t put it in anything waterproof, such as a plastic bag. Store it at room temperature, away from light, children, and pets (ref: www.mskcc.org/cancer-care/patient-education/fecal-occult-blood-test)
I read the instructions never said anything about alcohol consumption , dr didn't say anything about it either
:(
how aspirin interfere the test
Aspirin has increased risk of bleeding
@@NurseMinder how it cause falsely negative result?
@@akxaantony8215 We might not be able to tell if the bleeding is due to an actual condition or because of the aspirin.
@@akxaantony8215 does it fkn matter? Don’t do it!
You can take the samples from the source directly.
😳
Well you wouldn’t take it from the dog.
@@MrWmJosephSmithIII Some people go dig in the toilet, or go to Delta, do it on the street and pick a sample.
I drink about 200mL of grapefruit juice every morning. Is this OK within the three-day window prior to first stool collection?
Grapefruit juice is to be stopped two to three days prior to the test as it can cause a false positive test result
@@NurseMinder But the instructions say the following "For three days before and during stool collection period avoid Vitamin C IN EXCESS [emphasis mine] of 250mg a day from supplements, and citrus fruits and juices". This is not quite what you are saying so I'm confused?
@UCzBc_8L3IleXuo3bqD9wndQ I continue to look forward to your clarification. Thank you.
@@NurseMinder You still have not answered my follow-on questions below.
I have to sit on a hat and having a hard time doing a stool
What?
JOHN 3:16 FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD, THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE.
Did God have to give a stool sample?
Well, Only if a white plastic stool sample collection hat is required.
Came here for witchcraft , stayed for poop
lol
Lol
Have to have a little fun!
