I had a brca1 gene that gave me breast cancer 3.5 years ago I've had full double mastectomy and lots of recon, two questions if anyone knows...since I had cancer and they cleared it I have asked for my bloods to be checked by my doctor every year but does anyone else get offered regular tests after it gone? Because arnt we still in remission ? Also has anyone had more than 2 fat grafting operations I've had two now and think I need another is that normal. And any tips on how to shift post cancer chemo weight it's still lingering! But I'm also menopausal on hrt at 40! I'm almost 43 now thanks everyone 
Hi and a very warm welcome to the online community
As the online community is divided up into different support groups I'm going to recommend that you join the breast cancer group and the BRCA group which are great places to ask your questions, share experiences and get support.
To join just click on the link I've created and then choose 'click to join' or 'join' (depending on the device you're using) on the page that opens. You can then introduce yourself and post in the same way as you did here and join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'.
It would be great if you could pop something about your diagnosis and treatment so far into your profile as it really helps others when answering or looking for someone with a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
If you have any difficulty navigating the community just drop me a reply and I'll be pleased to help.
