That's it really. I suspected it would be a positive result and feel so sad and scared about it. I am opting for risk reducing surgery and thought I would feel happy about that but I don't know how i feel really.
It seems there are other cancers that I will be susceptible to as well, not just breast and ovarian.
Anyone else going through this?

I had a risk reducing double mastectomy with reconstruction a few months ago. I can't tell you just how much peace of mind it's given me! Was a big decision but I would say go for it!
