I was in a study that taught me a lot about the genetics but our family is a false negative which basically means that they think we have a genetic link but have no yet found that particular defective gene.

I'm thankful to hear that yours were all benign. Someone ence told me they had 7 biopsies, and all benign. I do worry because of my family history. No, there has been no testing done. I don't think my insurance would cover that for me. I don't know that I want to know if there is the gene there. I guess just going once step at a time is all I can handle. If the gene is there, so be it, if not, I could still develop cancer too. It is just so much to think about!...lol Right now I will deal with this lump until I know it is benign. Then maybe another time I could get the test when I am feeling more calm and able to deal with that. Good luck in your future with your health. Thanks for the posting.
