PALB2 mutant gene

Hi everyone, 
I have just finished my chemo and radio and just starting hormone therapy and Iโ€™m doing ok so far ๐Ÿ˜Š My oncologist asked me to do a genetic test back in october and I have finally received my results, I have a mutant PALB2 gene which I understand increases my risk of breast, ovarian and pancreas cancerโ€ฆ. Oh yeh!! I feel like this cancer journey is just the shitty gift that keeps on giving!! 
The genetics professor is sending me all the info this week but would love to hear from anyone that has had the same result. TIA Sam
