    I have been notified that my last mamogram came back suspicious. I meet with a surgen Monday morrning so he can look at what ever is growing on my left breast. I am scheduled for a compression test and ultra sound. Then another biopsy later in the week. This is the 3rd time I will gothrough this.I have an extreamly high family history. My mom, my grandma, and 7 aunts on both sides. My insurance company will cover the brca1 and brca2 breast cancer gene test. If those tests come back positive they'll cover a double mastomey and reconstructive surgery. I have a lot of options to consider. Ladies if any of you were positive from the gene test would you do what Angelena Jolie did.

    I'm sorry to hear this -- you must be stressed out! Yes, if it meant my life, I'd do what Angelina Jolie did. Better fake boobs than breast cancer if you can avoid it. I hope all goes well for you.
