I am currently looking into genetic testing, as my Mam has suffered twice with breast cancer (2 different breasts) and she opted for a mastectomy. We have a very strong family history with 3 out of 4 of my mother cousins’ experiencing the disease.
Would welcome any comments about thoughts and feelings about this matter.

It explains what is meant by a significant family history of breast cancer. If you would like a copy just follow this link:-
