Excellent product for doing your colon test at home
By Jay G on July 19, 2017
Verified Purchase
I use the FIT test often and find it easy to use and is very helpful. It provides results very quickly and you can find out if there is any bleeding in your stool quickly. This tool is especially useful for people older or people that have had a colonoscopy which has indicated polyps (benign or otherwise). I highly recommend it for peace of mind. It is very important to complete the test carefully. Read the instructions and make sure to collect the stool sample as indicated from several sources (I usually pick 7 or 8 sources) from the stool sample. Follow the instructions to test the results (needle) carefully by inserting into the panel. It is not a bad idea to purchase 2 since if you make a mistake or even if you do it right, a second time doing it helps to give one a peace of mind. Highly recommend this. Of course, if you see positive results, it is time to call your doctor and take the next steps

As good as a colonoscopy for a fraction of the cost
By Mikayla K.on May 2, 2018
Verified Purchase
Recently turned 50 and thought a colonoscopy was a good idea for preventative screening. It is after all the current standard of care. Of course, US Heath care being as garbage as it is, my insurance company wouldn’t cover the cost. They of course would prefer that I get colon cancer and then have to pay 1000 times the cost (don’t get me started). So after doing some research, I found another good screening option are these FIT tests. Instead of a colonoscopy every ten years, you can do a FIT test every year (check with your doc, though supposedly similar outcome). Very easy to administer, and get results instantly.

ByAGTon March 2, 2017
I had super clear at the 5 minute mark but a very faint line ( which wasn't really colored, just shinier and caught the light more ) appeared at the 9 minute mark, so which do I listen to? ( the line also got darker after the 10 minute mark ) The literature that says even a faint mark is a positive, or the literature that says results are in 5 minutes and to disregard by 10 minutes? But my results were super clear at 5 minutes *sigh* In the end I'm no more assured and none the wiser. I wish Pinnacle would clarify this more.
FIT does not alter the eventual need for colonoscopy and is a wasted step in screening
ByJames Ryan on September 24, 2017
FIT is positive in 9-10% of screening aged patients, and this positivity rate increases to 15-20% if the lower positivity threshold is used. The current algorithm is to perform colonoscopy in those who are positive. Only <1% of screening aged patients have colon cancer. At a 10% positivity rate that the false positive rate of the FIT is >9%. If done every year, this high false positive rate will lead to colonoscopies in essentially all patients in about 9-10 years. With colonoscopic screening algorithms, a screening colonoscopy is normally done at 10 yr intervals. Therefore, whether FIT is performed or not, a screening colonoscopy will be performed in essentially all patients anyway. Therefore FIT is extraneous, adds cost, and is effectively meaningless. Screening colonoscopy is the way to go. If someone does not want screening, that is their business. Using a test to try to convince someone to get the test they already need is a waste. Anyone who recommends cologuard is blind to the fact that this emperor as no clothes. This key point seems to be missed by the guideline committees. At our San Francisco VA Hospital, we have offered screening colonoscopy to all since 1995 and now have an 83% steady state compliance rate in our screening age group. This has led to a reduction in colon cancer rates from 80 cases per year to 12-13 cases per year (not surprisingly an 83% reduction) as colonoscopy not only discovers cancer but prevents future cancers by removing premalignant polypoid lesions. Neither Cologuard nor FIT remove or prevent cancers. Rather, they generate a colonoscopy which is the truly effective intervention.

Tested positive on 38 y/o with no other risk factors for colon cancer, had 15mm polyp removed from ascending colon.
ByJoe McElmeelon August 28, 2015
Verified Purchase
I am 38 years old. I purchased this product after having a change in stool habits (loose stools) a couple months back. This FIT test came back positive. Turns out, the loose stools ended up being related to my diet (I was eating too many Kroger-brand Fudge Bars, so I stopped eating them) and after changing my diet, my stools returned to normal consistency, however even my "normal" stools were testing positive with this FIT test still. I contacted my primary care doc, he gave me a lab grade test from my medical provider which also came back positive so he scheduled me for a colonoscopy...
Lo and behold, I had a 15mm polyp in my ascending colon. I just had the colonoscopy today and the polyp was successfully removed, however I am still waiting on the biopsy which may take 2-4 weeks. From what I've read, there's only a slim chance of it being malignant, but what I'm getting at is that this test proved to be extremely valuable and accurate.
Without this test, it would have been hard (if not impossible) to convince my health care provider to give me a lab-grade FIT test since I had no visible blood and since I don't have any other risk factors for colon cancer. If I had not thought to look into this, the polyp would likely not have been discovered until later in life and it would have been much harder to deal with and probably a greater likelihood of it being malignant at that point. Great product.

I took this test April 2016, & being retired RN, I wore gloves and had the stool in the white plastic "nun's cap" device that sits under the toilet seat...so you cannot miss.. and it doesn't go into toilet itself. It was very easy to scoop out what I needed. Most pharmacies and maybe even Amazon sells these plastic containers. They are usually used to measure urinary output. The test was negative and my health insurance told me they would reimburse me for taking it because it is part of their primary prevention program and mandatory- either get colonoscopy or this FIT test. You just submit the ICD code which I got from my GYN doctor. It all fell into place. I highly recommended this test!

If you're going to do a test for blood in your stool, this is the one. It's simple to use and works as advertised. It takes about ten minutes. Go ahead and get two, however, since you are expected to do one test, wait a few days, then do another (just in case you had stopped bleeding when you took the first one).
Although colon cancer does tend to deposit blood in your stool, so can several other issues, including ulcers and hemorrhoids. And the test can have a false positive. So if you have a positive test, don't panic. But DO tell your doctor about it. The doc will probably want to schedule a colonoscopy to see where the blood originated. Also, this WON'T tell you if you have pre-cancerous polyps -- only a colonoscopy can do that. So don't use this test INSTEAD of a colonoscopy.

I used this as a secondary test from my doctor's test and I think it's great. I did a lot of research and recommend you do so also on the reliability of FIT tests in general if you're expecting certainty. There is no sure thing out there and (assuming you have a good gastroenterologist) a colonoscopy in the end is still the most reliable test for any issues. The directions were very clear although getting an appropriate amount of sample with your tissue is something that should be done at your discretion based on your personal body experience. I found it super easy to use and have no complaints.

test cartridge does not resemble cartridge diagram on instruction sheet
By kareninca on January 12, 2016
Verified Purchase
We have used three of these kits so far. In the case of the first one, the cartridge looked like the cartridge in the instruction sheet: the test area was a long thin blank space. The second and the third cartridges, however, did not resemble the instruction sheet diagrams. In the test space there are two pieces of printed paper. On one end of the test space is a chunk of paper with little arrows printed on it. On the other end of the test space is a chunk of paper with "FOB" printed on it. It is still possible to read the test results, but these chunks of paper cover up much of the result area.
Is this a manufacturing error? I emailed the company over ten days ago to ask, and have not received a reply. I asked the question here in the question area, and have received no reply. Why would the cartridge not resemble the diagram on the instruction sheet? Was the test strip put into the cartridge upside down or backwards? Could this have affected the results of the tests we have taken? Are these weird-looking cartridges, usable?
We have an ongoing need for this test, and I need to know the answer. I would call the company (I just bought $150 worth of these kits, in bulk), but when I recently called about a packaging issue I was told (without my asking) that I would be sent a replacement cartridge to fix that problem, but it has not been sent to me. So I would prefer to have an answer in writing.

By B. Pearce on May 26, 2015
Verified Purchase
This test couldn't be easier, and of course I'm pleased because my result was negative. It took less than 10 minutes, and I had the results in the privacy of my home. Older tests had to be mailed off or acquired through the doctor's office, and you had to wait for notification. I was encouraged by the gastro doc who posted his thoughts that this was a good product. To paraphrase medical wisdom, the best test is the one the patient will agree to.
At apx. $25 for two tests, it's affordable to repeat once or twice a year. I just can't bring myself to submit to a colonoscopy because of concerns about side effects ranging from perforation to disruption of beneficial bowel bacteria and kidney damage from the prep, and particularly the persistent and unnecessary use and lingering effects in some people of amnesia-inducing Versed (I saw what it did to both my kids and my husband, and no thanks very much). If I were to have a positive result I would of course seek further exams starting with the new DNA-based test called Cologuard that detects material shed by polyps and other growths. No prep, just do your business and mail it off. But it's about $500 to $600. A positive result there means biting the bullet and having the colonoscopy.
Would I be this colonoscopy-averse if I were a high-risk subject? I might still have extreme reservations but it would make more sense to undergo the procedure. Is colonoscopy the most thorough? Yes, provided your technician is good at their job and not trying to perform 60 a day. This FIT test is not as accurate, but it's pretty good, and a good place to start.

Great product
Effective, but need a second pair of eyes to ensure that my results are indeed correct and legitimate.

Tested myself thrice over the past couple of weeks and all results came back negative. Was worried that I had blood in my stool due to seeing red in it, and I wanted to believe that it was merely because I was digesting red-colored foods such as watermelon and salsa.
The attached pictures show the latest test. When viewing the results from above, the bold C is there and there's no T. But when you tilt it, you can see a white "glow" on the T line and I even noticed an almost entirely faint/invisible gray line when looking at it from a 20 degree angle (90 degree would be from above).
Last test was done 30-40 minutes after my latest bowel movement, but the specimen was still soft enough to have some bits stuck on the swab. Is the result still valid, and is the "glow"/incredibly faint line just light and shadow from the room I took the pictures in?

I am not sure, mine came out positive but my doctor said it is still a good Idea to get a colonoscopy done with a biopsy if needed, but he said these tests can scare people because they say colorectal cancer but it can also just mean benign polyps are there which are good to look at in any case of course.
Will definitely recommend

After searching 5 bricks and mortar stores I turned to Amazon. What a great product. Very easy to use and most of all reliable. I told the Dr. what I used and he trusted the results.

Did my test. Very simple to do. I feel much better about my health as a result. Great product. No going to the lab. Shared it with a friend. I will do this test annually. Cost and delivery both great. I recommend this test to all 50 year olds and any age person with blood in stool or change in bowel habit or other alarm symptoms. This test may become the test of choice if the with the cost of colonoscopy. The problem with colonoscopy is that not enough people don't get it done for many reasons. There is no reason not to get FIT. Thanks for a good experience.
Useless

Like so many others, test doesn't seem useful. I followed the directions to the letter and got a very dark red line for the "C" (control) but an incredibly faint, clear line for the "T" (Test). The T line has no color and is not even visible on pictures I took with natural light. Is it positive or negative. If you can't tell, what use is this test. I called the company but no one was available to answer my question. Useless.
Faint pink line???

I realize now that my " review" was more of a comment......mainly because I'm confused as to the result...but I've ordered more kits, Pinnacle......but hopefully someone can help dispel fears before the new kits arrive. It seems like I'm not the only one who got a nearly inperceptable faint pink line next to the "T". One actually has to turn it towards and away from the light to see it.....I wonder, like others ...is this a flaw in the process or truely a " positive" result? Here is my original comment "I too had the dimmest of lines at T. So dim my wife couldn't see it...and I questioned whether it was there at all several times ( bright light would make it disappear) but enhancing it in photoshop there is indeed a " line" there...not exactly evident to the naked eye. Or are these extremely dim lines from some chemical there that might turn darker if there was blood present. I sure wish Pinnacle Labs would clarify."
Anyones guts will hurt after too much stress and this is something that you can do discreetly.

Well, how embarrassing... If you've had cancer in your family, this is something you might want to do at home rather than in some bathroom or pay 300 dollars for the test. If you've got nervous stomach from say, a two year waiting period of whether you get to live or not, you might get sick... waiting... and well, nobody really cares.... So, I am a huge advocate of trying to test for whatever you can test for at home because chances are, you aren't too excited to do it anywhere else, and won't. If you are, then by all means, go to to a doctor first....
