?Sunbathing? - HNPCC

Less than one minute read time.
I 've been reading up on my faulty gene ie HNPCC/Lynch Syndrome It predisposes me to cancer in a few different body areas, I've already had it in my bowel but, I have read that it also can increase the risk to my skin. I'm rather partial to a bikini and have even been known to go 'au natrel' in hotter climates. Does any1 know if I should give this pastime up for my health??

    I do not know - I suspect the answer is you should give it up - to be sure wait till Monday then ring up the helpline here and speak to a nurse who should be able to confirm the correct course of action - freephone 0808 8001234. Jools
