I’ve been on the waiting list at the GOld Coast University Hospital for the BRAC1 gene test but as it’s now free for those of us diagnosed with breast cancer, wonder if it can be ordered by GP at normal facilities. With a daughter and two sons and six grandchildren I’d like to know ASAP.
Hubbie & I had gone the saliva gene test years ago for cancer society as no one in our immediate family had ever had cancer. When mine was diagnosed I advised them and so I’m wondering if they could do the testing (friending how long they keep the results etc).
Very interesting all the new findings on cancer so often these days. I just hope the scientists and researchers can find a cure that’s much less traumatic than radiation and chemotherapy.
