Thank you, Dr. Griggs, for the comprehensive video on this important topic. I got some new and very useful information for my further course of action - I had genetic testing in October last year and was found to have the Check 2 mutation.

Hi Dr. Thank you for your explaination i want to know more about triple negative cancer that your mention that its more common in women carrying the brca 1 & 2 mutations. Its this type of cancer aggressive? Thank you

In general, triple-negative breast cancer is considered more aggressive. Nonetheless, the chances of cure are good for most people.

Good morning! Thank you for watching.

Thank you for the idea about brca mutations doc. Where can I ask the brca test?

If you have either breast cancer characteristics that make testing indicated (triple negative breast cancer) or a compelling personal or family history, testing can be done through your surgeon's office or your oncologist's office. A compelling personal or family history includes cancer in both breasts in you or a family member, ovarian cancer in you or a family member, prostate cancer in you or a family member, and other cancers. Knowing as much information about your family history and sharing that with your medical providers is important. There are other genetic conditions besides BRCA that a family history can reveal.

@@yerbba I was diagnosed breast cancer and undergo mastectomy and series of treatment like chemotherapy.Suddenly in this recent days I notice lump in my lympnodes. What could be the cause of this lump?

I was diagnosed with lobular breast cancer 9 years old and ovarian cancer and breast cancer recurrence recently. Finally they told me I have gene mutation RAD51-C. 😢. Do you know any characters of RAD51-C? What's the survival rate? Thanks 🙏

Thanks for writing. You are going through a lot. Breast cancers associated with a RAD15-C mutation are more likely to be triple-negative. It does not appear that the prognosis is worse than in other people with triple-negative breast cancer not related to a gene mutation. Wishing you the best as you move forward in your treatment.

How much of a chance would I have with 3 out of the 4 girls in my family have had breast cancer me being the only one that hasn't one passed from it...

If there is a gene in your family that is accounting for the increased risk of breast cancer and if your sisters and you have the same mother and father, each of their children has a 50-50 chance of inheriting the "deleterious" gene (the one that is associated with breast cancer). Each sibling has an indepedent chance; that is, each child has a 50-50 chance. If there is no identified gene, this would be a familial breast cancer. It is difficult to estimate the risk in each child. The risk is higher than in the general population. It would probably be helpful to find out if any of your siblings has had genetic testing in the last 7 years. The tests have changed, and people who were tested a while ago are advised to be retested.
