Has anyone got the RAD51D gene iv got breast cancer and been told i will have to have a double mastectomy and have a hysterectomy. Going through chemotherapy at this moment had 12 weekly Ac now on EC.
Hi Dolly15
I don't have this gene, as far as I'm aware, but just wanted to pop on and suggest that you also post this in the breast cancer group where I can see you've posted before. The advantage of posting there is that you'll connect directly with others who have or have had breast cancer and might have the gene you're asking about.
Wishing you all the best.
