Preventive Mastectomy

It is such a big decision and unfortunately a real concern to you.  I had no family history of bc (I have 4 sisters with no trace of the disease).  After my second diagnosis I chose to have the gene test just to have peace of mind.  I have two daughters and now two grand daughters.  I have already passed on some major genetic issues to y daughters ie coelic disease and factor XI deficiency (blood disorder).  The cost of the test is not cheap but you may meet a criteria that will let you receive it free of charge.  I am so pleased that I had the test which came back negative.  My daughters and grand-daughters are now considered as having the same risk as the normal population.  I now read that there is a vaccine that has been tested on mice in USA which can prevent BC from advancing from Early Breast Cancer (EBC).  There is so much information out there and so much research happening that one day there will be a lesser risk of this disease.  I pray that I will be here to see it.  You are a brave young woman with personal initiative to seek your answer.  Good luck dear girl.
