I don't have a family history of prostate or ovarian cancer. My surgeon was saying that colon cancer can be in this group aswell. My dad was diagnosed with bowel cancer 5 years ago but is now cancer free after only needing surgery. He got some genetic testing done for bowel cancer and it came back negative. He thinks I would probably test negative for the BRCA gene as I am only the third person in our family with BC and he thinks maybe more people in our family would have had BC for there to be a genetic mutation. But who knows, maybe I do have it. I have already discussed the possibility of a double mastectomy with my surgeon if I do test positive for the gene and we have also talked about removing my ovaries aswell. And apparently I qualify for free testing due to my family history but there is a 6 month wait so I could fast track it through the private system and pay $400. Aarg! So much to think about at 34 years old. I must say, I never thought I would be facing this so young!
