Re: Genetic Testing

Thanks so much for your reply JayKay! So happy to hear that your recurrence was caught early and you were treated effectively! My min had a lumpectomy. I had a double mastectomy and was actually scheduled for a prophylactic surgery when they found the breast cancer (6mm in my right breast). I did Taxol and Herceptin. Have been on Tamoxifen since 2013. I did genetic testing in 2013 and again in 2018 too. Same panel. Not positive fir Chek2 but a variant of uncertain significance was found. I have a 9 year old daughter. I plan to get super early surveillance and monitoring for her whether or not a genetic mutation is ever found/exists!
