Genetic Testing

My Dr. is insisting that I see a Genetic expert, I have an appt. on Thurs. AM she wants me to bring as much info as I can about family history, they also asked me if anyone in the family had lost a child at a young age due to cancer, leukemia etc. I'm hoping in the long run this can help all of my siblings and our children as well as future generations.

The days are going pretty quickly as I'm being kept busy going from Dr. to Dr. and having all the pre op tests etc. I'll be glad when my surgery is behind me, I found out yesterday that I will probably have to have radiation... 33 treatments is what they are thinking. That sort of threw me as I was told previously that would be determined after my surgery. Seems I've gotten lots of what feels like conflicting information, it could be I'm just on overload! Thanks for all your prayers!
