It was not an OTC test, it was through a medical study at a university with specialized geneticists providing her the test results. As somebody who has been through BC and what it can do to a family, I would think you would be more compassionate.
@Caribbean_Reina @HuffPost Men and women face different issues and obstacles and it serves no one to try and compare their experiences. This story is about women and breast cancer...lets leave it there, cool?
@HuffPost That's why I keep rebuffing my OBGYN's suggestion to get tested and follow up with prophylactic surgery if positive. I don't believe in altering your body on a what if. Sorry, but that's just me. No one is telling men to remove their prostrates based on BRCA results.
@HuffPost Wow. We need this woman in politics. She is so intelligent. I feel sorry that she removed both breasts on an erroneous test and yet it appears that that fact did not keep her from getting married and having children and living her life. She is amazing.
This woman was told she tested positive for the BRCA1 genetic mutation and underwent a double mastectomy as a preventive measure. Here's what happened when she found out she was actually negative. huffp.st/RBqnsGk
