March 18, 2009

Today I have an appointment with a genetic counselor. My mom went with me, we thought it would be a good idea since she was also a breast cancer patient. The counselor went over our family history as far back as we could remember and did a full genetic workup, including testing for BRCA-1 and BRCA-2 gene mutations. We should have the results back in about 2 weeks. She did comment that she would not be surprised if the test came back positive.

  1. Love the blog. I think it is amazing that you are using this opportunity to support other young women out there. I am also impressed that you managed to upload a pic to your blog - we will get one of your Facebook page yet! Cristy
