I have recently found out that my sister has tested for the gene but don't know results as yet. up till now i have been quite happy to be 'unable' to be tested as no 'affected' family member had yet tested (I have not had cancer but others have). now the question rears its ugly head again and I really don't know what to do. i don't think i would handle a +ve result very well emotionally as i already flit between anxiety and mild depression. i think it would play on my mind continually and make me quite unable to handle day to day stuff.
for those who were 'borderline' i.e. not sure what to do, how did you arrive at your decision.
