Hello Everyone and thank you all for your posts,

I have been receiving all of my care at Magee Womens Hospital here in Pittsburgh, and am actually in the same group as Dr. Brusky, my doctor is Dr. Lembersky. I think I could possibly even get a visit with Dr. Brusky without a whole lot of trouble.

Also, Becky I just wanted to let you know that I printed and saved the ASCO info that you had posted previously. This is what helped me have the guts to bring up the subject again, after I was told no at my second visit.

Thank you all so much.... just having so many doubts, and having my chemo on Monday, not feeling the greatest doesn't help matters either. I will also be finding out the results of my BRAC 1 & 2 testing next week on the 25th. When I feel better, I am sure I will do better with all of this.

Thank you all...it really means alot to me to get your insight & input
