Finita, I can not believe that they wouldn't do your gene test. I know the Government is tightening up on Health. I was sent there by the Hospital as I had just lost my Mum and other Family members. I was tested for Lynch Syndrome as I lost my Father and my Brother has Bowel cancer. I recieved the results on Wednesday and found out that I have this mutated gene as well as Braca 2. A double whammy. I was very upset to get the results because I thought I was fine. Now I have to have colonoscopies every 12 Months. On top of that I only have one Kidney functioning and there is a large cyst with hydronephrosis on my left Kidney. As well as seeing the Urologist and having tests, I am awaiting propalaptic surgery on my breasts. Thankfully, I have had my ovaries and uterus removed so that solves that problem. It has been very draining and I will be glad when it's all over but at least I am still here.
