Re: Question/ sister now diagnosed
Ruth,
So sorry that your sister has been diagnosed.
I was lucky that I was supported with BRCA1&2, BRCA large rearrangement and TOP2A testing. I tested negative for everything. I still have a history of breast cancer for generations on my mother's side.
I just read "The China Study" which proposes that cancer forms when a society eats a large amount of animal proteins. I'm thinking of going vegetarian (mostly).
I hear your anxiety. I feel a little nervous about keeping some of my other parts, breasts, ovaries, etc.
