After waiting the longest hour ever in the waiting room, I went through to the little room that Genetics work out of at Greenlane Hospital and the lady sat me down. She asked how my day was, I said "All I really want to know is do I have the brca2 gene" The gene lady said yes.
Mum started crying, I felt numb. I still feel numb. Although its a fantastic thing that I have found out that I have this gene, It still sucks that I have up to an 85% chance of getting breast cancer and 40% chance of getting ovarian cancer.
Genetics have referred me onto Gyneoncology and the breast clinic. I see the same doctor that mum saw for her breast cancer. Fun.
I would like to have a preventative mastectomy asap. We may have more children so the ovarys can wait, but I would like my boobies off asap thanks :) And give me some noice perky ones in their place :D
