[quote=Anonymous]I had it done a couple of years ago and like PP found it empowering. I have a history of melanoma, benign breast lumps and cysts so my breast surgeon recommended it (I am a candidate for preventative mastectomy/reconstruction). The pre-test counseling was fantastic. One thing is to ask yourself how you deal with uncertainty: While I didn't have any of the "known" markers I do have an anomaly that may or may not be significant - the research just isn't there yet. They said they will be in touch if they ever find out one way or the other. I'm okay with this and literally never think about it (other than replying to this post!) but some people might struggle with the ambiguity. Good luck! [/quote]
