Hi Corinna,
I was in a similar situation to you. I was diagnosed with TNBC last year, my Mother was also battling Stage 4 Breast & Bowel Cancer, my Sister also diagnosed with TNBC. My Great Aunt, cousin and many more family members with BC.
I had my genetic testing earlier this year - which took 2 months to come back. Much to everyones surprise it came back negative. I had already chosen to treat the cancer with Chemo, single Masectomy & Radiation. I had extermely agressive cancer with multiple tumors ranging from 2cm to 5cm. I only did the gene testing to make some decisions prior to reconstruction.
My Mother has since died and I have not yet had reconstruction. My advise is to go with your heart, you can always have the masectomy at a later date.
Good Luck - Sue
