A dear friend of mine just got tested for the breast cancer gene, and the news was not good. She has an 85% chance of getting breast cancer, and thus is looking at a double mastectomy. Although the medicine in Arizona is not what I consider the best, we do have Dr. Victor Zannis here, who has an amazing reputation as a leading breast surgeon.

Have any of you had this gene test? And if you tested positive, what did you do?
