hi, I’m new here. I was diagnosed with the BRACA 1 gene a year ago. Is there anyone else in the same position? I’m thinking about having surgery but I want to have a think about it before deciding. Can anyone give me anything I might need to consider that I might not have thought about? Or advice about telling partners etc? I’m not currently with anyone but would like to know what people have done who are in relationships and their views on this to help me have a think about when the right time is to tell a new partner about my situation?
Thanks,
