Hi Kirsty have the hospital referred you for genetic tests  to check for the Brca gene?  with this gene the type of cancer is always triple negative and always grade 3, I think it's important  to find these things out for the sake of your family members as it gives them a sense of being forwarned that they are high risk,  hope you are coping with your diagnosis,  it does help to talk especially to others who are in the same boat as yourself,  any questions I'm happy to try and help as best as I can xx

Rufusblue,

Thankyou for this that is very helpful, I have been told that they will be sending out a kit for genetic testing. Yes, triple negative but I was told that I am grade 2, is it just BRCA that would be grade 3 ? I was told there are up to 6 gene abnormalities?

I am doing okay thankyou for asking very early days surgery two weeks today.x

Hope everything goes well with your surgery and hopefully it won't be the Brca gene responsible,  sending positive thoughts and prayers to you x
