well as a few of you knew i was being tested for the genetic screeening due to the family history well lucky me i am Braca 1 pos. dont know how I really feel about that . i had triple neg high grade3 ductal bc had partial mastectomy chemo radio and 5 yrs toremifen . i am not keen on having a double mastectomy but will have more rigid screening in place i will need to have my one ovarie and tube removed had a hyster but as i was young at the time they left one ovarie  great, so will be getting booked in for that.  all the info is alot to take in i dont fully understand the difference between braca 1 and braca 2 .
