BRCA1 gene Senior CitizenHello: Back in May 2008 I was looking for informaton as to anyone having the BRCA1 gene. with family history of breast cancer. I got some good replys thru this organization, other sources etc. Well, I did have the ovaries removed this Aug 19th 2008. Of course they did not find any cancer cells (Thank God) but I am relieved that I did the procedure. I am recovering now, feel pretty good and do not have to worry about ovarian cancer. It took some doings at first, why remove healthy organs? but I am glad I did. I want to see my grandchildren graduate college. Thanks for all the replys that I received from you. God Bless Babboo |

BRCA1 gene Senior CitizenThank you so much. I am so confused as to this BRCA1 gene. The doctors suggest: Trans vaginal ultra (which I did) Breast MRI Colonscopy (which I will in the very near future) They are worried about ovarian cancer. I am a breast cancer survivor. My health has been good for the last 18 years. What a great site this is. Again thank you for your response. |

BRCA1 gene Senior Citizen<address>Hope some one can help me. Had partial hysterectomy (1971) Breast cancer (1990) been clear ever since. My 39 year old daughter is undergoing chemo for breast cancer as we speak. In Feb. we were both tested for the BRCA 1 gene which we both have. I under went a trans vaginal ultra sound to see if I have my ovaries. Yes, I do. The doctors want me to have them removed , but after 38 years, I am sure they are not functioning. Why have them removed?</address><address>Is there anyone in the same predicament that I am in with the BRCA 1 gene. other people who are in my age group, who still have their ovaries. am in good health, have a diagnostic mammogram every year. If my daughter did not come down with breast cancer I would of never been screened for the BRCA1, in fact I did not even know it existed. If someone could answer all my questions I would be forever grateful.</address><address>Thanks </address> |
