hmmm. september appointment for genetic testing got bumped up
to monday. providing the doc's wife is not popping out a baby at the time.
that's a little spooky.
i just had a 3rd 1st degree relative dx'd with breast cancer. my doc was already nagging me about mammograms and all. now she wants an mri annually and an annual mammo on the other half year, so a screening every 6 months. i also have a strong streak of colon cancer on my dad's side.
i am eager to do this. for one, i have 3 daughters. 2, we also have autoimmune disease, with my youngest and i having abnormalities, and fibro. it doesn't fit in any slot, but we both struggle.
all clues are welcome.
besides, what geek wouldn't want to look?
